PLACEMENT INFO
Be aware that SPAN 1001 counts as elective credit.  It will not fulfill a foreign language requirement for
your program of study.  If you have not taken Spanish before or had experience with the language, you
will need 1001.  However, if you have experience with the language, you may see if you qualify to be
placed out of 1001 (not for credit, just for exemption) into a higher level. 

You may access a FREE ONLINE Spanish placement exam (from any computer with internet access)
by going to
http://webcape.byuhtrsc.org/?acct=gpc The password is "gpc".  The exam takes from
5 to 20 minutes depending on your knowledge of the Spanish language.  When you finish the exam your
results will be displayed for you along with a suggestion of which level of Spanish would best suit you. 
Copy and paste that information and/or print it.  Ultimately, the choice is up to you.  However, if you
place above 1001 AND wish to enroll in a level above 1001 AND have not taken 1001 at the college level,
you will need permission to override the system.  You will need to send your score (via email from where
you copied/pasted the score) or bring the printout in person to a Spanish Instructor.
