* Consider 1 year in high school equivalent to 1 quarter at UCI. You may enroll at the level where you would place based on high school years completed, or you may go back one quarter (e.g. a student with 3 years in high school may enroll in 2A or 1C). If you enroll in levels lower than this without appropriate placement exam results, you will not earn credit. A student who completed high school language courses more than 5 years ago may enroll for credit at the 1A level. To schedule a placement exam visit: www.testingcenter.uci.edu
