This may require students to take an additional two semesters of a foreign language study beyond the standard College requirements. With the approval of the American Studies program, some study abroad options--specifically, foreign language courses or courses taught in a foreign language--may apply toward fulfillment of the requirement. The language(s) chosen for study must pertain directly to American studies and requires the approval of the director of the American Studies program.
- Students who are double-majoring may cross-count one course.
