All students who wish to enroll in a course in Japanese and who have had any previous experience whatsoever in the language which they plan to study must take the placement examination.
In order to ensure the accuracy of the placement test results, please answer the questions to the best of your ability without consulting dictionaries, notes, or other forms of reference.
The Japanese placement exam is in two parts:
Part 1 (grammar/written) will be on Sakai, available the week of July 08th. You should complete the test by the end of the day on Thursday, August 08th.
After you have completed Part 1, you will be contacted by one of the Japanese instructors for Part 2, which will include an oral interview.
