The exam will take approximately 30 minutes.

Your placement score:

At the end of the test your results will appear on-screen along with your placement. WRITE DOWN YOUR PLACEMENT AND ENROLL IN THE COURSE RECOMMENDED. This information will also be recorded by the UVM course registration system to cross-check with your course registration.

If you need to see your results again you should log in to the exam, fill in the top part of the survey as you did when you took the exam, and then press the resume button. (This process works if the exam is interrupted, as long as at least one question has been answered).

If you do not believe the test score accurately reflects your abilities, please contact the Department of Romance Languages and Linguistics, 517 Waterman Building, and we will arrange for you to speak with a French professor to best determine what level class you should be in.

If you are disenrolled

If you do not take the placement test, do not fill in your correct UVM student ID number (95 number) when asked, or do not enroll in the course level corresponding to your placement score, the UVM registration system will disenroll you from the course. If you are disenrolled, follow the instructions for the placement test above and re-enroll at the appropriate level.

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
