Students who place through the intermediate level and begin taking Spanish at the 300 level cannot count SPAN 201, SPAN 202 or SPAN 205 toward the minor. These students are required to complete all 18 credits of the minor through course work at the 300 level or higher.
Only one of these conversation courses may count toward the completion of the minor.
