What is the EPT?

To take a second-year course (1003-1004) at U of M in French, German, or Spanish, you must pass the Entrance Proficiency Test (EPT). The EPT consists of three portions: reading, listening, and writing. You will take the reading and listening portions on-line. After you pass reading plus listening, you will be prompted to register through the website to take the writing test on campus. You may take the EPT only once. The EPT does not offer any course credit.

Be sure to read about Eligibility to see if you need to take the EPT, or if you should take a different placement test.
