Intensive English Program (IEP) and Foundations Program Placement
Students are placed in IEP or Foundation classes in one of two ways.
- Students give an official TOEFL, IELTS, or iTEP Academic score report to 黑料天堂. Only official score reports are accepted.
- Students take an English placement test when they arrive at 黑料天堂. The test is free for new students who do not have an official TOEFL, IELTS, or iTEP Academic score report.
