Students are required to pass SPA-349 with a minimum grade of "C" before advancing to other 300 or 400 level upper-division classes.
The foreign coordinator or the division chair may, however, grant some students permission to take another upper-division class at the same time that they are taking SPA-349.
Students may not elect to take SPA-117, SPA-118, SPA-237, or SPA-238 after successfully completing SPA-347, SPA-349, or any other upper-level courses, but may pursue CLEP credit prior to completing SPA-349.
CLEP Policy
Students may CLEP SPA-117, SPA-118, or SPA-237 for credit. However, students must CLEP these courses prior to completing SPA-349 or with approval of the foreign language coordinator to receive credit for their major or minor.
AP Credits Policy
Incoming freshmen who, prior to their enrollment at Indiana Wesleyan University, pass the AP Spanish Language Exam with a minimum score of 3 will receive credit for SPA-117. Students who pass the AP Spanish Language Exam with a minimum score of 4 will be awarded credit for SPA-117 and SPA-118. Students who pass the AP Spanish Language Exam with a score of 5 will be awarded credit for SPA 117, SPA 118, and SPA 237. AP credit for these courses will not meet intercultural competency.
