Chinese Placement Test

RWU Modern Language Department offers Spanish, Italian, Chinese and American Sign Language (ASL)

if you learned one of these languages in school or in your community or simply if you are familiar with one or more of these languages, please take the language placement survey to place yourself.

If you did not learn a modern language in school or your community and are not familiar with the languages, you are not required to take the survey, but encourage to take a beginning language course: SPN 101, ITAL 101, CHN 101, or ASL 101.
