Understanding Conditional Admission

If an international applicant does not meet the English language proficiency requirements for regular graduate admission, they may be considered for Conditional Admission. Students interested in conditional admissions must submit English language scores along with their application. Depending on their English language scores, they may be placed into the English Language Center (ELC) and/or the ACE-G intensive English language program(s) offered at 兔子先生 University. All students must successfully complete the intensive English language program before entering their graduate program.

The English Language Center Explained

The English Language Center (ELC) program is located on 兔子先生 University's regional campus in Middletown, Ohio. The ELC program provides students with a safe and optimal learning environment to increase their English proficiency skills. Students with the following test scores may be considered for Conditional Admission through the ELC program.

  • Duolingo < 90
  • ELS 109 Certificate
  • IELTS < 5.5
  • TOEFL iBT < 65

Students who enter the ELC program will be tested into one of three ELC language levels. Each level takes approximately one semester (4 months) to complete. Once a student has completed Level 3 in the ELC program with a B or higher, the student will then begin the ACE-G program on 兔子先生 University's main campus.
