Spanish (From SP101): Recommended Three-Year Path

Notes:

  • Assuming SP101/102 will be 3 credits in 2020/2021, otherwise add 1 credit per class
  • Spanish Major 33 credits (24 of these credits must be at the 300 level or above)
  • Starting from SP101
  • Student will earn the TI exemption with 9 upper level SP credits that qualify.
  • This plan leaves room for a second major.
  • If you have completed “dual enrollment” courses during high school, AP/I.B./CLEP exams, or college courses, we will help you find the appropriate Butler course(s) and potentially earn Butler placement credits (BLPC). Placement credits allow you to combine other majors and/or minors with your Modern Languages degree or take general electives you’re eager to experience. BLPC are awarded based upon your Butler placement exam result or the course level in which you begin via permission of the Modern Languages department chair.
  • For BLPC, you can request these 200-level elective credits after completing, each with a “C-” or better, two 300-level Butler courses in the same language. How it works:
    • Begin in 203: you’ll be eligible for three 200-level elective BLPC
    • Begin in 204: you’ll be eligible for  six 200-level elective BLPC
    • Begin in 300-level Skills: you’ll be eligible for  nine 200-level elective BLPC
