Langara English Test and Language Proficiency Index

Students planning to enrol in a first-semester English course must take the Langara English Test (LET) or Language Proficiency Index Test (LPI) prior to the semester in which they want to register. Students who have BC English 12 or BC English Literature 12 or equivalent with a 70% are not required to write the LET or LPI.

Prerequisites

Repeating a course

Students may take a first-semester English course a maximum of two times. (For the purpose of this rule, ENGL 1127 and ENGL 1128 are regarded as the same course.) The Chair of the Humanities Division or the Department Chair of English may waive this rule in exceptional cases, particularly if the student can provide evidence of upgrading.
