SPANISH MAJOR
If you want to major in Spanish, we can help you design a program. To do so you would declare a major in Liberal Studies (LST) with a concentration in Spanish. You would need 120 credits in Liberal Studies and General Education courses to which you would add a minimum of 27 credits in Spanish. It is recommended that you include a semester of study abroad.
