ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
(All courses are 3 credit hours, unless otherwise designated.)
World Languages (0-6 cr.)
Attainment of beginning-level proficiency in a language
other than English. This requirement can be met in one of
two ways:
• Successful completion of a second-semester language
class, designated as 102 in the IU South Bend
Bulletin. The number of years of high school language
instruction typically determines into which semester a
student may choose to enroll (0-1 years = 101; 2 years
= 102).
• Formal training, as evidenced by secondary or
university diplomas, in a language other than English.
The Department of World Language Studies (W.L.S.) offers
a placement examination to determine into which semester
a student should enroll and/or to qualify students for credit
by examination. Students may earn up to 6 credit hours
for testing out of any two of the language classes 101, 102,
203, or 204. For more details, see the Department of World
Language Studies web page.
