Exempt from First-Year Writing Requirement
You are exempt from the first-year writing requirement, if you can provide the proper documentation. You should not enroll in ENG 101 if you are eligible for exemption.
Exemptions from ENG 101 on the basis of SAT or ACT scores will be awarded automatically for regularly admitted NCSU students.
If you are qualifying for exemption through IB, then you will need to submit a results printout from the IB organization that demonstrates you scored a 5 or higher on the appropriate exam and were awarded the IB diploma. We will accept this documentation only after the first day of classes in the semester you are seeking exemption by IB credit.
All documentation should be submitted to:
