Placement Tests
Modern Languages and English
You can find the dates for our German placement tests here.
Before taking part in a placement test, you must have set up a user account at the Language Center! Set up a user account at the Language Center now.
As a student with previous knowledge of a particular foreign language, you can take a placement test once at our Language Center. A second participation in a placement test in the same language is technically possible, but the result of the second test will only be counted if there is a valid reason for a second test (e.g. longer stay abroad). Please consult the respective head of the language section, as they must arrange for the second test result to be evaluated.
Before taking your placement test, please check whether the contact details, in particular your contact e-mail address in the Self Service Center match the information stored in your Language Center user account. If these differ from each other, there is a risk that your result will only be made available to you after you have reported it and we have manually corrected it.
Information on changing your contact details can be found at https://help.itc.rwth-aachen.de/en/service/rhb2fhkpjhb7/article/05e8ebbe0121433e9efa4c8114f3622a/.
