  • Spanish 2001 may be recommended in consultation with faculty if they wish to continue their language.
  • In helping a student find the appropriate language course, advisers should consider the student’s previous experience with the language along with the placement exam score.
  • Students are encouraged to register for language courses in the fall semester. If the recommended language course is not offered in the fall, students may register for the next language course in the sequence, in consultation with the course instructor.
  • If a student would like to further discuss their placement, please contact Victor Berberi.
