The Guidance and Counselling Office (GCO), in collaboration with the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), administers the English Proficiency Exam (EPT) to ensure that all students meet the necessary language standards for academic success. This mandatory test is required for all incoming freshmen, foreign students, and transferees, providing a vital benchmark for assessing their English language proficiency.

The EPT is designed to evaluate the key aspects of communication, including speaking, writing, reading, and listening. The results of this exam serve as a guideline for identifying students who may require additional support to enhance their English skills, ensuring they are well-prepared for their academic journey.

For students who wish to improve their communication skills further, the College of Arts and Sciences offers the Language Enhancement Program (LEP). This program is open to foreign students enrolled in the university, as well as to individuals outside the university who are interested in honing their English language abilities. The LEP provides comprehensive training in the fundamental skills of communication: speaking, writing, reading, and listening. Whether you are a university student or a professional seeking to enhance your language proficiency, this short-term course is tailored to meet diverse needs.

The Language Enhancement Program welcomes participants from all walks of life, fostering an inclusive learning environment that promotes cultural exchange and mutual understanding. By participating in this program, individuals gain not only improved communication skills but also increased confidence in expressing themselves in various social and professional contexts.
