PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL CURRENT APPOINTMENTS HAVE BEEN FILLED.  A NEW SCHEDULE WILL BE POSTED SOON.  

The GTLI English Language Proficiency Assessment is designed to assess English language proficiency skills for applicants to graduate programs at Georgia Tech.

The assessment is an interactive, audio-and video-recorded session (via Zoom) that will take approximately 90 minutes and have two main parts: a speaking/listening section and a writing/reading section. Your assessment results will be communicated through a score with the following possible recommendations:

  • Score of 3.0:  Admission recommended
  • Score of 2.0 to 2.5:  Admission recommended with successful completion of coursework at a grade of 80% or higher
  • Score 1 in either section:  Admission not recommended at this time

Please note that a score of "3" meets the Graduate Admissions minimum English proficiency requirement. 

* The GTLI does not release assessment results directly to applicants. Graduate Admissions will receive the results of your assessment within 3-5 business days after your appointment. After 3-5 business days, you may contact Graduate Admissions directly for the results.

*Assessments may be taken only once per every four months and only twice in one calendar year. For example, if you take your assessment on July 1, you would not be eligible to take the assessment again until November 1.
