-
entering students with 29 hours or less through earned credit (credit through AP, CLEP, IB, or dual credit courses), and

All other students—returning Tarleton students, transfer students the 30 hours or more, students with earned credits of 30 hours or more—will still be required to take the Writing Proficiency Exam.
Catalogue Course Designation Language:
A "WI" next to a course in the course catalog indicates that this course can fulfill a writing-intensive requirement. Departments will designate specific sections of such courses as writing-intensive. Sections of writing-intensive courses are not indicated in this catalog. Students should check the section comments in Banner when registering. Students scheduling their courses in Banner can also conduct a search for courses with the attribute "WI" to bring up a list of all writing-intensive courses available that term.
