§18B-14-3. College credit authorized for learning English as second language.

State Institutions of higher education are authorized to offer college credit hours for English learned as a second language and may accept English learned as a second language to satisfy an institution’s foreign language requirement. To obtain college credit the student must be enrolled in the institution granting credit and be certified as having reached a satisfactory score on the test of English as a foreign language.

The Higher Education Policy Commission and the Council for Community and Technical College Education shall jointly propose rules to set and identify scores required on the test of English as a foreign language for course credit being offered.
