What do I do if the class I placed into is too easy/hard? Heading link

Students must register for the course into which they are placed. According to University policy, they will not receive credit for taking courses below the level at which they place.

If you have concerns about your placement, you should speak with your instructor and contact the directors of the Basic Language Program.

Only the Directors can authorize changes. All changes must be completed by the end of add/drop.
