English Language Program Requirement:
For admission as an F1 status student, RVCC requires a minimum English Proficiency score requirement on either the TOEFL or IELTS test. You will not be issued the Form I-20 for RVCC without a passing score.
NOTE: All students who achieve the required TOEFL/IELTS score are still required to complete the RVCC placement test upon arrival at the college. Some developmental, supplemental ESL courses may still be required and you may enter the RVCC ESL Pathway program for English Language Studies.
