Schedule of Classes Quarterly Archive for "Spanish"

Spanish department comments:

Students with no previous background in Spanish, must take a copy of their high school transcript to the Humanities Undergraduate Counseling Office (HIB 143), to activate eligibility to enroll in Spanish 1A or Spanish 1AB.

Students who have satisfied required prerequisites at another college or university, or who graduated from a high school in a Spanish-speaking country, or who graduated from a Spanish Academy, must take a copy of that transcript to the Humanities Undergraduate Counseling Office (HIB 143) in order to activate eligibility to enroll in Spanish language classes.

1) A student wanting to enroll in any Spanish 1A through Spanish 2NS (formerly Spanish 5) course at UCI for the first time in Winter 2009 must take the Spanish placement test (for exceptions, please see "#2" below). Eligibility to enroll in any Spanish 1A through Spanish 2NS course at UCI will be based on the result of the placement test.

2) Any student with a previous class (or classes) in Spanish from another college or university who wants to enroll in any Spanish 1A through Spanish 2NS course at UCI, must take a copy of their transcript to the Humanities Undergraduate Counseling Office (143 HIB) to activate eligibility to enroll in the appropriate course.

Students who have already met the language breadth requirement with either SAT II scores or Advanced Placement exams, and plan to enroll in a Spanish 1A-2NS course at UCI, are still required to take the Spanish placement exam. Students cannot earn units or grade points at UCI in courses from which they have been exempt on the basis of Advanced Placement credit, even if placement results require enrollment in such a level. Contact the Testing Center at testoff@uci.edu, at (949) 824-6207, or visit their Web site at http://www.testingcenter.uci.edu/plt/ for placement test dates and details on registering for a test.

Effective Fall 2007, Spanish 3A & 3B replaced Spanish 10A & 10B in the Spanish major and minor; however, students who earned a "C-" or below in Spanish 10A or 10B cannot enroll in Spanish 3A or 3B to improve the grade. Students who have satisfied the required prerequisite at another college or university, or who graduated from a high school in a Spanish-speaking country, or who graduated from a Spanish Academy, must take a copy of that transcript to the Humanities Undergraduate Counseling Office (HIB 143) in order to activate eligibility to enroll.

Students who have prior credit for Spanish 100C or 100D cannot take Spanish 101B for credit. Students CANNOT earn credit for 100D and 101B taken concurrently. Students who enroll in 100D and 101B spring 2009 will earn unit and grade credit for 101B only.
