Modern Language classes must be taken consecutively, with no “time off” between one level and the next. If time off is taken, the student will be asked to start over with the first year class. No credit will be earned for the repetition of the class(es) if the student passed the class(es) initially.
Students wishing to challenge the first or second year of a language course must:
1. Pass an oral proficiency interview with an instructor of the language in question.
2. Obtain the appropriate signatures by the specified date on the permission letter.
3. Pass the required written exam(s) with a grade of “85%” or better.
4. Have the exam results reviewed and agreed to by all of the instructors of the language in question and by the Modern Language Department Chair.
