English Courses

Sequences for Reading, English and ESL Courses
Students must take the ASSET, COMPASS, or ACCUPLACER test or the CELSA placement test before enrolling in English or Reading courses. Appropriate placement in a course is determined by the student's Writing, Reading and ESL Course Placement Scores. The English Department recognizes course equivalences and allows students to go back and forth between ESL courses and ENG courses until they reach the ENG 101/102 and ENG 107/108 block. English courses ENG 071, ENG 081, ENG 091, ENG101, and ENG102 may not be taken concurrently; they are to be taken sequentially.
