Course Placement
        &
Placement Testing
Knowing which courses to take each semester is an
important part of being a college student. You’ll learn more
about how to do this in future modules on
curriculum, advising, and registration.



But for now, you need to know whether you need to take
placement tests, and if so, which ones, and when.
Oxford students have many choices when
        selecting courses each semester.


However, for some courses, it is necessary to ensure
 that you have the appropriate knowledge or skill
  level before enrolling in the course you want to
                       take.
Oxford accomplishes this in
 several different ways that
     vary by academic
         discipline.
Where possible, we use your high school transcript
and standardized test scores to determine your
appropriate level in a discipline.

This is the case in:
  - French, Spanish, Latin, Arabic, Biology;
  - English for native speakers with SAT verbal scores at
        or above 550, or ACT scores at or above 23.

You and your advisor will be informed at orientation
of the level of course you are eligible to take.
In other cases, students must take actual placement
tests, administered on-campus during orientation.
This is the case for:
      English courses for non-native English speakers;

      Students w/lower than 550 verbal SAT;

      Students w/below 23 on the ACT).

You and your advisor will both be notified of your
placement before you register during orientation.
Math placement is accomplished through a combination of:



      - self-placement based on previous coursework taken
      - on-line self-placement tests taken over the summer

      - a placement exam taken on-campus at orientation
Students wishing to take Chemistry must complete an on-

line placement test by August 1 to determine correct

placement.



The links on the following slides will take you to the Chemistry test and the

required mathematics self-placement tests, as well as to more thorough

explanations of how placement is determined in each curricular area.
These links will take you to explanations of the

placement requirements for courses you wish to take

in English, Foreign Language, Biology, Chemistry, and

                    Mathematics.



Follow the links to the Chemistry exam and math self-

             placement tests as needed.
