<strong>Concordia</strong> <strong>University</strong> requires that students demonstrate proficiency in written English on both basic and upper<br />

Students who are not eligible to take the Writing Proficiency Exam, or who do not pass the exam, will register<br />

College Level Examination Program (CLEP) test or by credits awarded through the Advanced Placement (AP)<br />

Program.<br />

<strong>Concordia</strong> <strong>University</strong> requires that students in traditional degree programs demonstrate basic proficiency in<br />

better in at least two semesters of high school speech communication courses.<br />
