Placement Test Score Guide

This guide will show you the first course(s) you are eligible to complete in each language, based on your placement test score.

Students may only complete a placement test ONCE for each language, solely to determine the level of their first course. Subsequent attempts are not permitted and will not be evaluated. After completing their first course, students will follow the course pathway.

Students may only enroll in course(s) that are listed for their specific test score. It is not possible to enroll in a lower or higher level course than is indicated for each score in the Placement Test Score Guide.
