What is the Language Proficiency Index (LPI)?
LPI stands for Language Proficiency Index. The purpose of the LPI is to provide information about an individual’s competency in English. Grade 12 students in BC are recommended to submit LPI scores with their applications. Such students generally write the LPI before or during the application process. Admitted out-of-province and International applicants should arrange to write the LPI upon arrival at SFU. SFU hosts LPI test sittings, but students should check the LPI website for sittings in other locations and times.
