WKU Colonnade Program
STAMP Assessment
The complete information about the language requirement and ways to fulfill it can be found here.
The STAMP Assessment is the easiest route for students who have taken the pre-college curriculum of 2 years of a World Language to demonstrate their skills and complete the WKU language requirement. For STAMP tests taken at WKU, the result is recorded in Topnet and marked in iCAP as fulfilling or not fulfilling the requirement. STAMP results do not yield college credit.
