Spanish Language Courses (SPN)

Prior to registering for their first Spanish language course, students must take a placement test.  

Tests are typically evaluated within two business days. At peak times of year (enrollment and course intentions), results will take longer than usual - please take the test well in advance whenever possible. If you do not have a result after five business days, please contact Dr. Mignette Garvida.

Undergraduate Students: Test scores are posted in MyServiceHub > My Academics > Test Scores Summary.

Chang School Students: If you are enrolling in your first Chang School course (and you are NOT also an Undergraduate student) you will receive an email with your score.  Please be sure to Create a Student Profile and obtain a student ID number before taking the placement test.

If you are a returning Chang School student your score will be posted in MyServiceHub > My Academics > Test Scores Summary.

After confirming their score, all students may self-enroll using the Placement Test Score Guide.
