Placement procedure

Who must take a placement test?

  • If you have never learned any Russian, you clearly do not have to take a placement test. Your only booking option then is an A1.1 course.
  • If you have learned some Russian in the past, a placement test is mandatory. The result will indicate at which level you can continue at the Language Center.
  • Exception: Students who have successfully completed a Russian course at the Language Center in the previous semester can book a class on the next level without an additional test (follow-up registration). However, this is limited to a certain period of time, as specified in the email notifications sent out to those eligible for follow-up registration.

What does the placement test for Russian look like

The placement test will consist of an online test and an oral test via video conference.
