Placement Exam

Students who have learned sign language prior to enrolling in the program and feel that their skills are such that they would not benefit from taking ASL I and/ or ASL II may take an in-house Placement Exam. SAC’s ASL courses include over 60 hours of instruction, homework, videotapes, lab hours and outside events. If your class was less intensive or it has been more than a year since you’ve taken the class, consider registering for ASL I.

The placement exam is free of charge and available to take at any time during the semester. Please call or email the Department Office (210)-486-1106 – rlucio@alamo.edu to schedule a time and allow approximately one hour. The exam entails viewing a videotape and responding to written questions based on the learning outcomes taught in Signing Naturally I and II. Students who pass this exam will need to complete 3 to 6 additional credit hours in order to meet the credit requirements for the Associate of Applied Science Degree.
