Placement Test

For those who already have the ability in a language prior to registering for a UNO language course, the Department offers the placement test. This test is offered in French, German, and Spanish.

The placement test result is not a grade nor does it grant the student any credit. Instead, the result is expressed as the number of the course into which the student is qualified to proceed. Upon completion of the assigned course with a grade of C or better, the student may apply for bypass credit for courses preceding the one completed.

The test is available several times per year, especially around registration time and there is no charge for this test.
