*Course requires a recitation hour with the same professor, which must be accounted for when selecting your course.

All students in their first term take courses that are related to a planned major or exploration of interests and from the university core requirements.  Please take a moment to explore specific recommendations for the first term and year here.

Assessment of Math skills for Nursing, and all Biology, Chemistry, Math, Computer Science, and Pre-Med Majors

Students pursuing the majors above will be taking a Math Assessment using ALEKS, an online assessment instrument. Please learn more about the process here.

Language Placement

All Iona University students must take one semester of a language other than English (3-credit course) as part of the 9 credit-Diversity Cross-Cultural and Global Perspectives University Core requirement.  (A second course in the same language, though not required of all students, counts for three more credits toward the 9 credit DCCG requirement).  An online placement system has been developed by the University's Languages faculty to ensure that your language study at Iona is well suited to your background in a particular language.

Language Placement Survey

You are asked to complete a brief survey about your experience with one or more language other than English. If you wish to study Spanish or Italian, you may be required to take a placement test.

If you have no prior experience with Spanish or Italian, you do not need to take a placement survey.

If you have studied Spanish or Italian and/or if you are a heritage speaker of either language, you need to complete the placement text on the language you intend to study at Iona. The language placement test takes only 15 to 20 minutes.

AP Exam

If you have taken an AP exam in language and/or literature, please speak to your academic advisor about the possibility of receiving college credit.
