Study Abroad
Students who wish to use credits from courses taken abroad toward one of the majors or minors are strongly encouraged to commence such study only AFTER completing through level 213 (French, German, Italian) or level 214-227 (Spanish) in the language on campus, as lower-level courses taken abroad do NOT count toward the majors or minors. To ensure proper credit toward a major or minor for credits taken abroad, students MUST consult with the relevant departmental advisor prior to their study abroad experience.
