Language Placement Testing

Language Placement Tests are used to gauge the level of proficiency a student has achieved in another language. These tests offer an opportunity for students to demonstrate their foreign language proficiency and close out their Foreign Language Credit Requirement (depending on their major and test score). 

PLEASE READ: A placement test is NOT a course permit. After you take a language placement test, please submit ANOTHER permit request and include your test date and score.

Language(s) Offered: French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish
