Recommended study abroad soft requirement.


Exceptions to this requirement may be granted when circumstances do not allow the student to take part in this very important academic experience. One semester of at least 14 weeks of study abroad in a Spanish-speaking country. This study abroad experience will grant up to 12 credit hours that are equivalent to these four courses (SPAN 4520, SPAN 4530, SPAN 4550, and one additional Spanish course at the 3000-level or above).

Additionally
