Testing for Other Languages

If the person is interested in a language that is taught at UC, the person should contact the language coordinator for that language.

For Arabic, contact Grace Thome (thomege@ucmail.uc.edu)

For Chinese contact Jade Lin (linyh@ucmail.uc.edu)

For Japanese contact Junko Markovich (markovjo@ucmail.uc.edu)

For Russian contact Randall Rowe (rowerd@ucmail.uc.edu)

--------------

If it is a language not taught at UC, the student needs to find a professor ON CAMPUS who can be approved by Dr. Lopez-Ortega as an evaluator. (Hindi is a common one.) 

The last page has the part that needs to be filled out by the evaluator and the name of the professor who must approve the evaluator. (nuria.lopez-ortega@uc.edu).

If you have any questions, you may want to contact Dr. Nuria Lopez-Ortega.

If students have AP test score of 3 or higher, they do not have to take the placement test since they receive UC equivalent credits. See the attached document below.
