Language Placement Tests

Undergraduate Students

French, German and Spanish require online placement test scores. Placement tests are used to assess a student's language ability and assist in class level placement. For details and instructions, see Language Placement. Note: Please be aware it may take up to 24 hours for your placement score to update in the Registrar's system to allow you to register for a course.

The online placement test is not required for Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Latin, Portuguese or Russian. Students may enroll directly into beginning classes in these languages, and should contact the department chair for higher class placement. 

Graduate Students

The LLC placement exam does not substitute for language proficiency requirements that may apply to your master's program. Department expectations vary regarding how graduate students must demonstrate language proficiency. Please see your advisor or the department to clarify your specific degree requirements.
