- The number of courses you will need to take to fulfill the requirement depends on your previous background. Some students will already be exempt based on scores from the SATII, the AP, or the International Baccalaureate Higher Level exam.
- Students interested in French can start learning French at the elementary level, or continue their studies in the appropriate course after determining their proper level based on prior study and/or examination.
- Students who have fulfilled the language requirement in another language and who wish to study French have the option of an accelerated track, FREN 0120 and FREN 0340.
- For students who have already completed the language requirement, we offer a rich array of advanced language courses ranging from conversation and composition to phonetics to translation. In addition to advanced courses in literature, history, film, and culture.
