Placement
When you start learning a new language with us, you will automatically be allocated a place at A1 level.
However, if you are not a beginner in the language, you will need to take a placement test (“Einstufungstest”) to help determine the right language course for your language skills.
The placement test indicates the starting level of the course you can take (e.g. placement level B1 in Spanish = Spanish course at level B1).
Please note that at level A1.2 and above, a placement test is compulsory for the first language course that you enrol in.
The Language Center does not issue a certificate documenting your participation in, or the result of, the placement test.
Information on the Oxford Online Placement Test (OOPT) is available in the FAQ.
