order to build up their skills before taking UW20.
Upon the successful
completion of EAP 015, students will go on to take University Writing
20, and two Writing in the Disciplines (WID) courses to fulfill GW’s
literacy requirement.
Please contact Professor Siczek (msiczek@gwu.edu) with questions about undergraduate EAP courses.
Graduate Placement into EAP
According to university regulations, if your TOEFL score was below 100
(Internet-based test), 250 (computer-based test), or 600 (paper-based
test), you must take the EAP Placement Test in order to be placed into one of the EAP courses. You will not be allowed to register for your classes until your advisor receives your results. (Please remember that the EAP Placement Test is not a waiver exam. You are only exempted from the placement test and EAP courses if you scored an
overall band score on the academic IELTS of 7.0, with no individual
band score below 6.0.)
