[UWPadvising] UC Entry-Level Writing Requirement - placement needed

[Sheena Thrush]

On Behalf of Professor John Briggs, Director of the University Writing Program:

Welcome to UC Riverside!  We are looking forward to your joining the campus community!  According to our records, no official documentation has been processed to officially satisfy the Entry-Level Writing Requirement and you have not yet taken the required University of California Analytical Writing Placement Examination.  If you have met the requirement<https://uwp.ucr.edu/elwr#before_enrolling_fulltime_at_ucr>, please submit your official documentation to UCR Admissions as soon as possible.  Students who have sent official documentation proving you have satisfied the ELWR do not need to take the Analytical Writing Placement Exam.  Please note you will continue to receive notifications regarding this requirement until the ELWR has been officially cleared from your record.

The AWPE assesses your Entry-Level Writing proficiency and determines your UCR English course placement.  There is a three-quarter time limit for satisfying the requirement.  If you do not pass the AWPE or earn a grade of "C" or better in a qualifying ELWR class by the end of your third quarter of UCR coursework, you will be lapsed from the University.

The University Writing Program has TWO remaining make-up exams before fall quarter classes begin (September 14th and September 20th).  Please do the following:


  *   Visit https://uwp.ucr.edu/elwr#awpe for information about the make-up exams
  *   Pay for the exam or verify a fee waiver by visiting: https://www.awpe.org/candidate/
  *   Register for the exam here<https://ucriverside.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_ac4WviRyOvcTZv8?Q_R=R_3Jy05ISx4fVFXvI&Q_R_DEL=1>.
     *   Students who complete the AWPE on September 14th should have the results before the first day of fall quarter instruction.
  *   Be prepared to provide your photo identification.
  *   Bring 1-2 blue or black ink pens.
  *   Know your UCR Student ID Number (862-xx-xxxx)
  *   BE ON TIME! Late admittance will not be permitted.
     *   Exam begins at 9:30am (check-in begins at 9am)
  *   Students requesting accommodations for the exam should contact <https://sdrc.ucr.edu/apply-accommodations>  the Student Disability Resource Center.



Results from this test will be sent to your UCR student email account.  You should plan to enroll in the appropriate English course for the fall quarter provided that seats are still available.

We wish you success at UCR.  General information about the Entry-Level Writing Requirement and the Analytical Writing Placement Exam and specific information about the deadline for fulfilling the Entry-Level Writing Requirement can be found on our website at: https://uwp.ucr.edu/elwr.
