ASL Placement Test FAQs

FAQs

A tool that evaluates a student's ASL communication skills and knowledge of ASL linguistics and Deaf culture. The placement is necessary even if students already have earned credits for ASL, they will need to take the placement test to ensure they have the necessary skills for our courses.

Students who have ASL experience and who feel their skills may be appropriate for SLS 202 or higher, have been admitted to the college unconditionally, and hope to begin the series higher than SLS 201.

If you meet the criteria above, then you must take the placement test prior to enrolling in the SLS course series. Your test scores determine the most appropriate level for you to start within the series.

To appropriately complete the test, please allow yourself sufficient time to complete.

  • Once each semester (Fall, Spring)
  • Specific dates and times are determined at the beginning of each semester.

Contact the Coordinator of Sign Language Studies to schedule your placement test- June Ann LeFors at jlefors@flagler.edu.
