Graduate Reading & Translation Exam
We offer a test for graduate students once a semester. The dates are posted on our office bulletin board in Language Building, Room 101. For students to take this test, the first time they must take a pre-test (same as the undergraduate placement test) and place into the 2040 level. If they do this, we give them a "blue card" to sign up for the actual test. They have to get it signed at the Graduate School and pay a $15.00 fee and return the card to us. This has to be done at least 1 month before the exam. After the test is graded, the results are sent to the Graduate School and they notify the students by letter. They can also call us and check to see if they passed by giving us their SSN. Please consult the PDF file with information about the Reading & Translation Exam.
This information can be found on the web site of the UNT Testing Center.
