Students who plan to study world language and have previous world language experience should complete the world language placement.  Students should complete the placement prior to their initial advising appointment. The online world language placement (WebCAPE – Chinese, French, German, Italian, Russian or Spanish) can be taken on any mobile device, tablet, laptop, computer, etc. 

The placement will only take between 5-20 minutes, depending on skill level.  Placement cutoff scores are advisory, as all students should consult with an academic advisor or World Languages and Cultures faculty prior to self-enrolling in their first language course at Bowling Green State University.  To complete the placement, please visit:
