The Michigan English Language Assessment Battery (MELAB) evaluates advanced-level English language competence of adult nonnative speakers of English such as: Students applying to United States, Canadian, British, and other educational institutions where the language of instruction is English. Professionals who need English for work or training purposes. Anyone interested in obtaining a general assessment of their English language proficiency for educational or employment opportunities.

The MELAB is a secure test battery and is administered only by the ELI-UM and ELI-UM–authorized official examiners in the United States and Canada. The MELAB consists of three parts: a composition, a listening test, and a written test containing grammar, cloze, vocabulary, and reading comprehension problems. An optional speaking test is also available. Many educational institutions in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and other countries accept the MELAB as an alternative to the TOEFL. What is the MELAB? The MELAB is designed to measure your proficiency in the four basic language skill areas: writing, listening, reading, and speaking.

The entire MELAB lasts 2½ to 3½ hours (including check-in at the examination site) and consists of: Part 1: A written composition Part 2: A listening comprehension test Part 3: A multiple choice test containing grammar, cloze reading, vocabulary, and reading comprehension problems. A speaking test (optional). The speaking test is not automatically included in every MELAB administration. It is required for some professional certification programs and for applicants to The University of Michigan. If you are applying at the graduate level to a university in the United States and want to be considered for a teaching assistantship in order to receive financial aid it is strongly recommended that you include the speaking test in your MELAB test.

The speaking test is not offered in San Diego, CA (San Diego State University); Fort Lauderdale, FL; East Lansing, MI; Mount Pleasant, MI; Duluth, MN; Minneapolis, MN; and in Gallatin, TN. The speaking test may not be taken separately. It may be taken only in conjunction with the written MELAB Exam.
