If You Have Taken a Foreign Language in High School Please Follow the Instructions Below:

The Modern Languages and Literatures Discipline would like to welcome you to St. Norbert College. As part of Summer Orientation/Registration, we are requesting that all entering students with previous language study in French, German, or Spanish, regardless of amount, complete a brief, on-line language exam in the language you have studied. If you plan to continue language study at St. Norbert, this exam will serve as your language placement exam.

If you have studied French, German, or Spanish but do not plan to continue language study at St. Norbert, you still need to complete the exam. This exam is not for a grade. It is an assessment instrument that allows the Modern Languages and Literatures faculty to gauge the language study and proficiency of our entering class. For this reason, it is essential that you complete the exam if you have previously studied French, German, or Spanish, regardless of your plans to continue language study at St. Norbert. If you have studied more than one of these languages but do not plan to continue language study at St. Norbert, please take the exam in the language you have studied most or in which you feel strongest. If you plan to continue language study in more than one of these languages, please take the exam in each language you plan to study.

If you have studied a language other than these, or if you have no prior language study whatsoever, do not take the on-line exam and go here: "No prior language study"

You need to complete the exam at least one week before your Summer Orientation/Registration date. Please take the exam only once. As you begin the exam, you will be asked to complete a brief language survey.

On behalf of the Modern Languages and Literatures faculty and St. Norbert College, thank you for your cooperation. The Modern Languages and Literatures Discipline has a talented and dynamic faculty and offers an exciting array of courses. We offer a major and teaching minor in French, German, and Spanish and a minor in French, German, Japanese, and Spanish. Knowledge of another language is not only a practical skill in today's ever-changing world, but also broadens horizons and provides the preparation necessary to understand different cultures and succeed in today's globally competitive world. For further information, please visit us on-line at www.snc.edu/mll. If you have questions, please contact Jeff Ritter, Director of Advisement, at jeff.ritter@snc.edu or 920-403-3234. Thanks once again and best wishes.

Sincerely,
Dr. Bradford G. Ellis
