Course selection Guide

New Student – I am a true beginner.
You will automatically be enrolled in Beginner 1. No language test is necessary.
New Student – I have some French, but I am unsure of my level.
If you know some French words or can say a few phrases, but cannot hold a simple conversation in French, Beginner 1 is a good place to start to learn the essential basics.
Former Student – I have taken a class at the university.
If you took a class successfully within the last two years, you will be automatically enrolled in the next level.
If you were unsuccessful in your last course, you will be re-enrolled in that level.
If your last class was longer than 2 years ago, the university will determine whether or not you need to be re-evaluated based on your transcript with them.

Good knowledge of French
If you believe you have good knowledge of French, can hold a conversation and understand but do not know your level, we will request to have you tested to determine the appropriate level you should be following.
