For ESL (English as a Second Language) Students: Students who register in COMM11040 will take a communications assessment the first week of classes. The results of the assessment will indicate if an AC-Communications course (COMMLL043 or COMMLL044) would be more suitable. COMMLL044 is now a prerequisite, not an equivalent, for COMM11040. ESL students wishing to register in COMMLL044 must have one of the following prerequisites: COMMLL043 or Canadian Language Benchmark 7 in each of reading, writing, listening and speaking. To verify your eligibility and obtain clearance to register in this course, contact: crearts@mohawkcollege.ca or 905-575-2025 You may be advised to complete languagebased assessment.
