Foreign Language Proficiency or Quantitative Option Requirement
This requirement may be satisfied by:
- Demonstrating proficiency or completing college-level credits in a single foreign language. Students who elect the foreign language option may meet the requirement by successfully completing the second or third beginning-level course in one foreign language.
- This is NOT a credit hour requirement, but a PROFICIENCY requirement. The requirement may be met by earning a grade of C or better or a grade of S in the terminal courses of a University of Florida 1000-level foreign language sequence.
Transfer students who plan to continue the study of a language that they began at another institution must take a placement test before registering. If minimum proficiency in a foreign language is demonstrated by examination, this will constitute satisfaction of the foreign language requirement. However, no credit will be granted.
Students who transfer fewer than 10 semester hours in one foreign language to the University of Florida should contact the Foreign Language Department (170 Dauer-Romance Languages; 261 Dauer-Germanic and Slavic Languages) immediately to take the placement exam. The exam either places the student into the correct course in the sequence or out of the requirement. In either case, students do not receive college credit for performance on the placement exam. Students who place out of the requirement must be sure to have a letter of proficiency sent to the Student Services Office, 1000 Weimer Hall.
