UCLA的ESLPE考试

今天看UCLA的Graduate Admissions Checklis有一项是English as a second language placement examination (ESLPE)：
“According to University policy, whether you took the TOEFL or IELTS examination or not, you are required to sit for the UCLA English as a Second Language Placement Examination (ESLPE). Please visit UCLA Writing Programs' site for complete information about examination dates, times and location.
A visitor scoring below the minimum requirement will not be permitted to register until an intensive course in English has been passed.”


看到后面一句will not be permitted to register被吓了一跳，然后就来地里搜了搜，不过没找到太多信息。

之后去官网找到了这些信息，分享出来供参考，希望能帮到大家：

ESLPE所有国际学生都要参加，但是托福100+雅思7.5+的（或在英语国家取得学位等其他情况）可以豁免；
然后会根据ESLPE的成绩（假设ABCD)安排，比如A就不用上课，B就上一门课，C就上两门课；
但是如果比较差的话比如D（minimum score），admission会被defer（就像checklist里说的）

补充内容 (2020-12-9 10:20):
关于考试之后，根据不同成绩的安排，官网上好像没说defer的事情，参见回复。

作为已经在UCLA读了四年的人来说说，这个考试其实就是入学之后，你参加一个纯写作文考试（至少我当年2016是这样）。我当时用的雅思申请，总分7.0，不到7.5，所以必须参加这个考试。然后我考了后是clear pass。这个考试不会很难，所以不用太过担心。就像准备雅思写作一样去准备它就好了。

补充：

据往年同学，没听说过低于minimum score的情况被defer或退学的（虽这么说，但也要准备吧，不能掉以轻心）；

关于考试时间：
Students who are required to take the ESLPE must do so before or during their first term at UCLA. Failure to do so results in a hold on student records. Students may take the ESLPE once only.（见 http://catalog.registrar.ucla.edu/ucla-catalog19-20-98.html）
具体时间需要register：
The ESLPE is offered throughout the year, especially at the beginning of fall and winter quarters. Please click on this link to register for the next testing dates.

Q: What are the possible placement results of the ESLPE?
A:
Pass/Exempt Score: You have satisfied the writing requirement and no further action is needed.
For international graduate students:
Placement into ESL 300: This means you are required to take two courses, ESL 300 and ESL 301, in order to graduate. You may not take these courses concurrently so you will need at least 2 quarters to complete the requirement.
Placement into ESL 301: This means you are required to take one course only, ESL 301, in order to graduate.

关于考试形式与内容：
What is the format of the ESLPE?
The exam is one hour long and students respond to a prompt by writing their opinions about a topic of general interest such as one that might be in a newspaper. The department does not provide samples of the test. Students should bring a picture ID to the exam.

来自同学信息，仅供参考：两个题目二选一，每个题目有一大段文字，阅读完之后写一篇文章；感觉类似GRE作文。

非常感谢楼主的资料！
求问楼主，ESLPE是线下考试吗，能不能线上考试，UCLA General Catalog这个网站打开便是404 Not Found 无法得到更多信息了
