The recently initiated English for Speakers of Other Languages program at Ivy Tech Community College-Columbus has expanded to include the Franklin campus. Due to the growth of the program, classes will be taught in both Columbus and Franklin. The program assists speakers of languages other than English in improving their English language proficiency.
Placement testing dates have been set for June 21 and July 19 at the Columbus campus and June 28 and July 26 at the Franklin campus. The test can take from one and a half hours to three hours, depending upon the language capability of the test-taker. Advising follows the test and takes approximately 30 minutes. Both the testing and the advising appointments must be scheduled by contacting Debbie East, ESOL Program Coordinator, at 812-374-5330 or deast8@ivytech.edu. The test is free of charge.
