If a student has a question or concern about the level recommended for a certain score, we recommend that the student consult with the department directly, in order to assure that the decision is in the best interest of both that student and the other students in the class. Sometimes, students take the placement exam at the start of their time at the university but choose not to take language classes immediately. If a student does not to choose to enroll in Spanish classes the semester following the administration of the placement exam, the placement score is valid for another two years and is reported on the studentβs advising profile on myGPS. As with many skills, language ability begins to degrade over time if those skills are not employed regularly. Pedagogically, it is important that the studen be placed into the appropriate class for her/his current skill level. Thus, after two years, the student will need to repeat the placement exam in the Hispanic Studies departmental office before enrolling in course work in Spanish. Once a student has chosen to take a class in the Spanish language sequence β or has chosen to transfer credit from another institution as Spanish language credit β the placement exam is no longer an option for that student. The exam serves as a placement exam and will not be used to determine language competency beyond recommended placement for continued study.
