WL 4385 requires approval from Spanish adviser

Spanish has three tracks, for non-native, heritage and native speakers of Spanish. These categories refer to a student’s linguistic ability and are determined by the Spanish area adviser. As such, tracks and appropriate courses are selected in consultation with the Spanish area adviser.

Track for Native Speakers: Native speakers will start coursework at the 4000 level. In consultation with the Spanish area adviser, they should begin with SPAN 4301 or SPAN 4302, with one exception: native speakers who have not had formal academic training with written Spanish may begin coursework with SPAN 3359.

Track for Heritage Speakers: Depending on initial placement exam results, heritage speakers should take SPAN 2421, SPAN 2323 and SPAN 3359 instead of SPAN 2401, SPAN 2302 and SPAN 3358. From the second category of additional SPAN 3000-level courses, they may select from SPAN 3373, SPAN 3374, or SPAN 3375 only.

Track for Non-Native Speakers: Depending on initial placement exam results, non-native speakers should take SPAN 2401 and SPAN 2302 before taking any SPAN 3000-level course. After taking SPAN 2302, non-native speakers may take SPAN 3310, SPAN 3311, SPAN 3312, SPAN 3313, SPAN 3355, SPAN 3357 or SPAN 3358. For students in the non-native track, SPAN 3358 is a pre-requisite for SPAN 3373, SPAN 3374, SPAN 3375 and for any SPAN 4000-level course.
