<p>Hey!
I think I read somewhere that you can be exempt from W131 if u have an SAT score of 670 on the CR and Writing sections. Is this true?</p>

2

<p>It is if you have a 670 on the CR section.</p>

3

<p>Or a 32 on English section of ACT</p>

4

<p>Be sure to apply for 2 credit hours for W143, if you qualify, which a lot of people do. I’m not sure they give you the two credits automatically, so be sure to apply for them.</p>

<hr>

<p>If you have achieved one of the following test scores, you have fulfilled the English composition requirement and will be exempted from it without credit:</p>

<pre><code>* SAT (recentered) Verbal score of 670 or higher; or

  • ACT English score of 32 or higher; or
  • AP Program English: Composition and Literature score of 4 or 5; or
  • AP Program English: Language and Composition score of 4 or 5.
    </code></pre>

<h2>If you have achieved one of the above test scores AND you scored 660 or higher on the SAT Writing Test, you are exempt from the English composition requirement, and are eligible to apply for 2 credit hours in English W143 with a grade of S (satisfactory).** Please call (812)855-1430 to request this special credit.**</h2>
