THE CAAP TEST
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I have to take the CAAP test?
All undergraduates are required to take the CAAP. Non-teaching degree students may qualify
for exemptions. Consult your advisor for possible exemption. It is best to take the CAAP in the
semester after you complete Composition 102 (CAAP Writing) and College Algebra MA110
(CAAP Mathematics). Students are strongly encouraged to complete all CAAP tests no later
than their Junior year.
How do I sign up for the CAAP test?
You sign up for the CAAP test through your advisor. Normally, you will enroll in CAAP tests at
the same time you enroll in your classes for the upcoming semester. In an instance where you
or your advisor has questions in regard to enrolling in CAAP tests, feel free to call our office.
What happens if I fail the CAAP test?
Teaching degree students are required to meet the CAAP cutoff scores. Non-teaching degree
students who have failed a section of the test have an option to fulfil the requirement in the
math, reading, and writing labs. The lab option may require several weeks of time investment,
so students are encouraged to seek these services and complete the lab option early in the
semester. Click here for lab information.

About degree
evaluation…
This includes the classes you are enrolled in for the next
semester, too. For example, if it shows you have 24 hours
toward your degree it does not mean that you have passed
24 hours, it means that the twelve hours you are taking this
semester, and the 12 you are taking next semester count
toward your degree.
About degree evaluation…
The Degree Evaluation is broken up into sections much like
a General Education requirement sheet. To find out what
else might be needed to complete each area, you can find
a PDF of the Gen Ed requirements at:
http://www.emporia.edu/dotAsset/7a3396a4-b6aa-44bebd11-c5501e208235.pdf.

BA Foreign Language Requirement
Depends on student’s proficiency (required minimum level = 210)
[language] 110 + [language] 210 + 3-hour course = 13 hours
OR
[language] 210 + 3-hour course = 8 hours (for students who can
start beyond 1st semester of language)
OR
300-level [language] course + 3-hour course = 6 hours (for
students who can start beyond 1st & 2nd semesters of language)
BA Foreign Language Requirement
Rule of Thumb for Foreign Language Course Placement
• 1 year of high school language = 1 college semester (start
in 210)
• 2 years of high school = 2 college semesters (start in 300level course)
• 3-4 years of high school = SA 314
• Spanish heritage students should go to SA 314
• Note: Students will take a placement assessment at
beginning of the semester to verify correct course level
