Every Fenestra Forum has been assigned one of three colors. The color of your small group is marked on the back of your individual student schedule. This color is used to designate where you and your small group are assigned during each of the Rotation Sessions throughout Orientation Week.
Mathematics
Take the exam online at home prior to course registration. YOU MAY TAKE THE TEST ONLY ONCE. PLEASE READ THE WEBSITE CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING THE TEST. www.chapman.edu/math-placement
The purpose of the Math Placement Test is to place you in the appropriate math course. The placement test is not intended for “testing out” of the Chapman University mathematics requirement. Moreover, this placement test is based on the honor system, and its goal is to place you in the right mathematics course for your level of ability. There are two tests:
The Algebra Placement Test — This test is required for all students who have not been waived out of Math 98 or Math 99 based on their SAT or ACT math score. An SAT math score of 500 or higher, or an ACT score of 21 or higher is required to waive the Math 98 or 99 requirement. All students who are placed in Math 98 or 99 must take the course their first semester at Chapman.
The Pre-calculus Placement Test — This test is designed for students who have been waived from Math 98/99 and who wish to test into a GE quantitative inquiry course. This test is not required. Students who achieve a passing score of 24 or higher will be permitted to register for a quantitative inquiry course (7Q1) without taking the pre-requisite Math 104. THIS TEST WILL NOT WAIVE MATH 98 OR 99.
FENESTRA COLOR GROUPS
Placement testing

Foreign Language Placement
One part of the general education program is language study. Most students will complete this requirement by taking a language course at the 201 or 202 level of language. Online placement testing for language is available on Blackboard.
You have two options for language placement:
1. Take the language placement test online to determine the most appropriate start level. Note: You cannot waive the language requirement through placement testing.
2. Take the full language course sequence (101, 102, 201). This is appropriate if you plan to study a language you have never studied before.
Placement for other languages taught at Chapman will be handled through the Department of Languages. Please contact the languages department for more information: (714) 997-6843.
Students who can document functional language use (for example, passing the 201 level of the BYU Proficiency Exam) may have the language study requirement fulfilled. Contact Carole Wayman for BYU Proficiency testing at [email protected]
1nternational students whose primary instruction in high school was completed in a language other than English have fulfilled the language study requirement. Please contact the registrar’s office for further information at (714) 997-6701.
