The document outlines the curricular structure of Exceed Language Center. It is divided into 5 proficiency clusters from fundamentals to graduate level. Each cluster is further divided into levels that correlate to similar English programs and textbooks. Students must pass all courses within a cluster to advance to the next level, but can take a supplemental course instead of repeating a failed course under certain conditions. Upon completing the graduate level, students must pass a proficiency exam to graduate. An additional post-graduate level is also described.

The proficiency exam consists of an oral interview, a written essay and a multiple-choice test of listening, grammar, reading and vocabulary. 3 Exceed (EXC) is a post-graduate level for students wishing to approach native speaker-like proficiency in English; it will be introduced at Exceed beginning in Term 2. *** A student who doesn't pass a course but attains a score of 68 - 74 and has attendance of 80% + may choose to take a designated supplemental course (DSC) instead of repeating the failed course (except for an RW course which must be repeated); this may be done at any time before completing the relevant curricular level cluster (i.e. - FUN, LINT,HINT), but may only be done once in each curricular level cluster. DSC's at this time will all be Communicative Grammar (CG) and Conversation Skills (CS) oriented and will be taught and tested at the same standard of all other courses. Like other Supplemental Courses (SC), all other Exceed students are also encouraged to enroll in DSC's to enhance their grammar and conversation skills.
