Scores are valid for 2 years from the date of the test. Older scores will not be considered. This test can be waived under the following circumstances:

Non-native speakers who hold degrees or diplomas from postsecondary institutions in English-speaking countries (e.g., the United States, Canada, England, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand); OR
Non-native speakers who have successfully completed their most recent degree where English was the language of instruction with a cumulative 3.0 GPA or higher. Students may be required to complete an interview with a Richmont faculty member as a part of the Admissions process.
