International Student Placement Assessment
International undergraduate students who have been admitted under conditional, probationary, or developmental status may be required to take a placement assessment in math, writing, or foreign language. Because accurate and appropriate course placement is critical for academic success at APU, all incoming undergraduate international students who have been admitted under conditional status because of their English proficiency are required to take an English proficiency exam. For more information about the criteria for taking placement assessments in math, writing, and foreign language, and about taking an English proficiency exam, visit the International Admissions website. International Admissions staff advise all international students on which placement assessments to take and provide information about scheduling their exam(s).
