* The Spanish Language Studies major requirements assumes that students will have fluency beyond what is taught in Intermediate Spanish II. If you test below this level, you may be required to take Foundations of Spanish I-II and/or Intermediate Spanish I-II. If you test above Intermediate II, you may begin major courses starting with SPAN 301: The Art of Conversation. Completing language courses at the 200-level or above indicates fulfillment of HGS school core language requirement. Note that SPAN 301 has a prerequisite of CRWT 102, so faculty prerequisite override would be necessary.

Only Two GenEd courses may double count in the Major.
