Latin
Undergraduate Curricular Requirements
A maximum of 15 transfer credits
and/or credits earned through study abroad may be
applied toward the upper-division requirements
for the B.A. degree in Latin. Students who
receive a C or D in their first upper-division
language class are required to pass an oral and
written proficiency exam to meet minimum
departmental proficiency standards before being
allowed to register in other upper-division
language classes.
Before going on a study abroad
program, students must have the approval of their
major adviser to ensure that their proposed
program meets with departmental approval. Upon
returning to U of I, the Department of Foreign
Languages and Literatures will evaluate the
students' oral and written proficiency and
determine which classes studied abroad may count
towards the major.
