Wake Tech offers an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) curriculum program and a non-degree English as a Second Language (ESL) program. EFL program applicants may need to take the ACCUPLACER ESL test. The computer-based, untimed test measures multiple levels of English proficiency and is used to place students in EFL courses to maximize their potential for success.

Before requesting to take the placement test, students must apply for admission to Wake Tech.

The placement test consists of two areas: Reading Skills and Language Use. After testing, students will be referred to the EFL Advising Center, where a writing sample and an in-person interview will be conducted.

Students taking the ESL placement test can view sample ESL questions to prepare for the test. The only sections that are needed are Reading Skills and Language Use.
