CFL: Foreign Language Intermediate Proficiency
(203 & 204)
Foreign Language proficiency at the 204 level is required of all students in the College of Arts and Sciences. For most students, this is the most difficult degree requirement. It requires four consecutive courses to complete this requirement. Be careful not to repeat course numbers for which you already have credit.
Native Proficiency
If you have native proficiency in any language other than English, you can meet the Foreign Language Proficiency requirement without having to take language classes. The College defines the minimum level of proficiency as "the ability to read a newspaper or magazine without a dictionary and understand approximately 80% of what is read and approximately 60% of the spoken word." If you have this level of proficiency and wish to pursue this substitution, contact your advisor for details.
