This paper studies the college English vocabulary proficiency of Chinese normal college students of non English major during their band 1-4 stage. The results of the study indicate that 1) these students have a high vocabulary proficiency at the starting point of their college study while there is still a rather big gap between their vocabulary proficiency level and that required by the college English teaching curriculum; 2) among the different stages of vocabulary learning, students achieve the greatest progressive scale and highest growth rate in band 1-4; 3) there is a significant difference in vocabulary proficiency between students of liberal arts and students of science and between female students and male students ; 4) students vocabulary is correlated with their comprehensive language ability, but the correlation is not so distinct; 5) their vocabulary is almost not correlated with their ages and Chinese proficiency.
