What is the Fast Track Exam?
The Fast-Track Exam for Chinese Mandarin, French, Italian, or Spanish is available to students during Spring Break.
Many majors at CSI require students to attain an intermediate level of proficiency in a foreign language. However, students who have previously studied one of the languages taught at CSI or are heritage speakers of one of the languages taught at CSI may be “fast-tracked” to reduce the number of semesters of language study required.
In order to do so, students should take the Fast-Track Exam.
How do you take the Fast-Track Exam?
- For Chinese Mandarin, French, Italian, or Spanish, place a request through this online form.
- For Arabic, contact Professor Abouelkhair via email at hager.abouelkhair@csi.cuny.edu.
- For American Sign Language, contact Professor Rosen via email at russell.rosen@csi.cuny.edu.
To discuss the possibility of testing in languages other than the languages above, students should contact Professor Ureni at paola.ureni@csi.cuny.edu.
