Students can have the General Education writing requirement waived if they take and pass the writing waiver exam. Eligibility for this exam is determined by the English Department (which also administers and grades the exam). Any student who wishes to take the exam should contact the English Department to discuss the requisite scores on the Regents Exam and/or SAT Verbal.
