Notes

Approved prior learning credits determine if a student will begin at the intermediate level.
After students have taken an advanced-level course (300 or above) in any language, they may not count 200-level courses toward a major or minor.
Students must earn a minimum of 12 credits at Mount St. Mary’s University.
