NOTE:  Students who have already met the university-wide language breadth requirement for graduation with either SAT II scores or Advanced Placement exams, still need to take the Spanish Placement Test if they plan to enroll in a Spanish course at UCI. Students can NOT earn units or grade points at UCI in courses from which they have been exempt on the basis of Advanced Placement credit, even if the Placement Test result recommends enrollment in such a level.  Placement testing is optional and offered throughout the summer and the academic year. Contact the Testing Office, in Student Services II 2200, at  testoff@uci.edu,  at (949) 824-6207, or visit their Web site at  http://www.testingoffice.uci.edu/plt/  for details on registering for the test.
