ACADEMIC ENGLISH FOR

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

A.E.I.S. is an institutional English language program for international students whose TOEFL score is between 500-574 if you tested on paper and pencil or between 173-233 with computer testing. The intent of the program is to provide international students with further English language training so as to enhance their likelihood of success at the University of Oregon.

Participation is required and is coordinated by Abe Schafermeyer, Office for International Programs (541-346-1215) and Cynthia Keiffer at American English Institute (541-346-3945). Testing for the A.E.I.S. program typically occurs once the student has arrived on campus and will result in either placement into or waiver out of English language courses. International students who score above 575 or above(233 computer score) (and are not required to participate in A.E.I.S. classes) on TOEFL and who do not have credit for WR 121 are required to take the A.E.I.S. writing placement test that is given at the Testing Office and during the placement test dates shown below. Questions concerning participation and placement in the A.E.I.S. program must be directed to Abe Schafermeyer, OIP.
