Abstract Specific requirements for entry are required by higher education institutions (HEIs) to choose the best prospective students for a particular degree, and aspirants for university enrollment must first complete pre-admission assessments. The commonly used processes to assess their pre-admission skills are through interviewing and composition writing. This paper determines the English language aspirants through their interviewing and composition writing competence to be admitted to the university. This study employed a quantitative approach that utilizes a descriptive-correlational design, and Pearson R to analyze the data. It was conducted at Cebu Technological University-Moalboal Campus, a state university in the southwest of Cebu Province, with 86 aspirants who underwent panel interviews and composition writing assessments scored by the selected college instructors of the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) department using modified Philippine Association of State Universities and Colleges (PASUC) criteria. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between the aspirants’ competence in the panel interview and composition writing with a correlation coefficient (rxy) of 0.411, an alpha value of 0.05, and a p-value of 0.000. Hence, it is concluded that panel interviews and composition writing can affect one another. Furthermore, it is deduced that aspirants were not competent in their pre-admission skills: panel interview and composition writing. Moreover, it is recommended that teachers must implement an enhancement plan to provide adequate support and improve the aspirants’ interviewing and composition writing competence to ensure high success rates in university entry.
