Placoment Test On entering the Program, students are required to take a placement test. As the date varies from 4semester to semester, further information will be made available when it has been set. Students who wish to only take skill-specific classes do not need to take the placement test. In this case, the student should attend the class and have their proficiency level checked by the instructor. ‘The test is made up of four sections: 1) SPOT test: 15 minutes. 2) Kanji SPOT test: 15 minutes. 3) Grammar test: 30 minutes. 4) Composition test:20 minutes. ‘Along with the raw exam scores, to avoid overcrowding the distribution of the scores is also taken into consideration when dividing the classes. ‘Assecondary examination is held for those who could not take the original exam and those whose results required that they should take the exam again. As the date varies from semester to semester, farther information will be made available when it has been set. 5. About Finalized Class Levels Initially, the student's class level is determined by the placement exam, but if the instructors feel that they belong in a different class, class changes are permitted during the 2 weeks from the beginning of classes. In order to change class levels, the student must consult their supervising instructor and get their permission. If it is decided that a level change is in the best interests of the student, they should then receive the permission of the instructors responsible for both the level they are taking, and the level they want to change to. As a rule, students are allowed to change levels up to one level up or down (the same rule applies for kanji/vocab. and skill-specific classes). In the event that circumstances (such as a delay in arriving in Japan) force the student to enter the Japanese Program directly without taking the placement exam, they should be aware of the following conditions: For both the fall and spring semesters, students will be allowed to enter the Japanese Program for up to four weeks after the beginning of classes, on the condition that they can prove they have sufficient reason for missing the beginning of instruction (e.g., they submit a copy of their passport showing their date of entry to Japan). In this case the student will take the placement test individually and be placed in an appropriate class. Students will not be allowed to enter the program more than four weeks after the beginning of instruction. They will have to wait until the following semester. 6. Grading Grades will be based on exams (at least twice per semester), attendance, and class participation. Japanese A~D, and Kanji Classes:Exams'70%, Participation 20%, Attendance 10% Japanese E, F and Skill-specific Classes: Exams 60%, Participation 30%, Attendance 10% “Ifa student receives less than 50% in the final exam, they will fail. (Kanji classes need 60%) “Ifa student receives a total grade of less than 60% they will have to repeat the same level the following semester. “The tration system three or f after the class ends. If the grade is either A, B or C, you can proceed to the next level, but if it is D, you have to tay the same level again. 7. Attendance In order to pass a course, students must attend two-thirds of all class sessions (if your attendance is Jess than two-thirds, you will fail. However, when attendance is does not reach tworthirds for the reasons listed below, students will have a chance of passing on condition that their overall evaluation earns them a passing grade. 1) When registration for a course was delayed for a valid reason approved by the International Student Center. 2) When a student is hospitalized for injury or illness. 8) When Japanese lessons are scheduled at the time as student's major studies. 4) Other valid reasons approved by the International Student Center 8.

Dates for taking tests cannot be changed for personal reasons. However, if a student who need the credits for Japanese language classes or a student who wants to be promoted to the next level the next semester fails to take the scheduled tests for the reasons listed below, the student may be allowed to take tests at later dates: D Ines or injury 2) Family illness, injury or other emergencies 3) Obstacle caused by research in the student's major subject, 4) Delays or interruptions of transportation services 5) Other valid reasons approved by the International Student CenterAttention: Anyone found guilty of cheating , dishonesty or other unethical conduct will receive an automatic fail for all course taken in the semester during which the act took place, and will not receive any course credits. 10.
