You should note that each of the eleven(11) state universities apply this requirement differentlydepending on the programs you complete. If you plan toattend a <strong>State</strong> of <strong>Florida</strong> university, you should seek informationfrom the university regarding foreign language requirements.<strong>South</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> Community <strong>College</strong>’s Advising/Counseling staff can assist you in determining the requirementsof your university program. You are encouraged toselect a foreign language as an elective and complete it at<strong>South</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> Community <strong>College</strong>.Statistics Skills, Including Probability:101.
