International Students with Graduate Degrees from US Institutions

If a student has a foreign undergraduate degree from which an equivalent English course cannot be articulated but has a graduate degree (Masters or Doctorate) from an accredited US institution, that student can be exempt from ENGL 1010/1101 on the grounds that completion of an advanced degree demonstrates a proficiency in the English language that is equivalent to the content that would be covered in a freshman-level composition and rhetoric course.
