English 302 & 314 Test-Outs
University policy states that students may attempt a test-out for a course only once. Department eligibility requirements state that students must be at least juniors and must have completed (not just be finishing) English 150 and 250. They may not be enrolled in the course at the time.
Test-out exams for English 302 and 314 are offered early in the semester, during spring and fall terms. The ISU Test Centers administers the test-outs.
The test itself lasts up to two and a half hours, and students will take the exam in an ISU Test Centers computer lab. Administrators and instructors from the Advanced Communication program evaluate the tests. All parts of the test must receive a satisfactory rating for students to earn “T” (test-out) credit. Within six weeks after the exam, students and their advisors will receive an email message notifying them of the results.
