Foreign Language: Advanced Placement<br />
<strong>Marian</strong> <strong>University</strong> recognizes accomplishment in language<br />
learning. The placement tests in French, German, and Spanish<br />
serve to benefit students who have prior study in those<br />
languages. Students who place in FRE, GER, or SPA 220 or<br />
above, and who complete that course with a “C” or better,<br />
receive credit for the course plus six credit equivalency for<br />
intermediate level 200/201.<br />
Language achievement tests include the AP tests available at<br />
the high school level and CLEP tests at the university level.<br />
Credit may be awarded on the basis of achievement.<br />
Foreign Language and the International Student<br />

completed high school study in the first language, may apply<br />
English courses toward the language requirement at <strong>Marian</strong><br />
<strong>University</strong>. These are ENG 101, COM 101, HUM 230/231.<br />
Alternative to Foreign Language for Students with<br />
Communication Disabilities<br />
