About the National Latin Exam (NLE):

Visit the Official NLE Page for details!

Taking the NLE in March is a great way to get "official" proof of your Latin skills, a fun challenge, a way to compete with Latin students worldwide (from the comfort of your home!), and a chance for you to win medals, awards, and/or scholarships. An NLE award is a GREAT addition to your resume or college applications!


Overall summary as of spring 2009:
76 exams have been taken (over a 5-year period). 68 awards have been received!
33 gold, 23 silver, 8 magna cum laude, 4 cum laude.
Great work, everyone!
