Undergraduate Program

Updated information on the German undergraduate program can be found in the Undergraduate Handbook (link below).

If you are new to the program and have any pre-knowledge of German, you are required to take a placement test as soon as possible. Self-placement is not permitted in our program and will result in being dropped from the class. To find out more about the placement test and to schedule an appointment, please contact the undergraduate secretary, Gayle Grisdale.

The German Department does not permit auditing of courses. It is impossible to switch language course sections during the academic year.
