Credit for SPAN 1311 and SPAN 1312 may be earned through a CLEP exam or any other institutionally-approved competency exam. Additionally, an instructor may determine that the student's abilities warrant placement at a higher level, through an oral proficiency interview or written placement exam. However, such placement does not constitute credit, and the student is required to take additional courses in advanced Spanish to complete the 21-hour minor.
