Latin Placement

Cutoff Scores and Placement Messages for 2021-2022

Placement into the Latin courses is based on the student's score on the Latin Placement Exam. Students are strongly encouraged to contact the Latin Program Director to discuss their placement and get advice on course enrollment. Cutoff scores and placement recommendations are derived in collaboration with the Classics Department and are reviewed annually. The policies below apply to all students entering the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in Summer 2021, Fall 2021, or Spring 2022.

The online Latin Placement Test does not award academic credit. For information on taking a Latin Proficiency Exam, contact the Classics Department by calling 217-333-1008 during business hours or emailing LatinProgram@illinois.edu
