Given the scope of practice in communication disorders, oral English proficiency is considered an essential tool. 四虎影视's graduate catalog states that "International students whose first language is not English are required to pass an English proficiency test before they may be admitted to candidacy for a graduate degree." Information about the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) can be found on the following webpage: /admissions/how-to-apply/international/international-graduate.html>
Additionally, if a student whose native language is not English is accepted into 四虎影视's speech and hearing sciences graduate program, and if there is evidence that this student is having exceptional difficulty with one or more of the tasks required in clinical service delivery (speech perception, speech/language modeling, comprehending speech or language produced by individuals with communication disorders, writing clinical reports, counseling families, etc.) the student will be asked to address these deficits through a remediation plan (therapy for accent reduction, perceptual training, etc. as needed).
