Requirements
for Major:
Students may complete a major in French, German, or
Spanish by satisfying the language requirement and completing
successfully 2110 and a minimum of five courses beyond
2110. At least two of the five courses beyond 2110 must
be literature courses taken at Millsaps. For the German
major, two of the five courses beyond 2110 must be taken
at another institution, after approval from the department
chair. For all majors, no more than three language courses
taken at another institution may be counted towards
the major, and of those three, no more than two may
be beyond the intermediate level.
Requirements
for Minor: Students may elect a minor in French,
German, or Spanish by satisfying the language requirement
and completing successfully 2110 and a minimum of two
courses beyond it. At least one of the two courses beyond
2110 must be a literature course. All courses beyond
the intermediate level must be taken at Millsaps.
Language
Requirement and Placement Test: The Department of
Modern Languages administers its own placement test.
The test is compulsory for all those who wish to continue
their work in a language they studied in high school.
Students beginning a new language are not required to
take the placement test.
According
to their placement test scores, students will either
satisfy the language requirement or will be placed into
1000, 1010, 2000 or 2110. Academic credit will be awarded
only for courses taken. Students may present transcripts
verifying that they have completed the equivalent of
Millsaps' Basic and Intermediate language courses taken
at other institutions, thereby satisfying the language
requirement.
To
satisfy the language requirement, students must demonstrate
proficiency at the intermediate level by successfully
completing a course in 2000 or 2110 or its equivalent.
International
Study: Before taking language courses abroad, students should
consult with the department chair to ensure future transfer of credit.
