Millikin University Bulletin description:
(0-8 credits) Students placed at the 103, 114, or 223 levels must take two courses. Those placed at the 300 level or above must take one course. The requirement for this track may also be met by successful completion of a proficiency exam, by study abroad with non-English instruction, or by being a native speaker of a non-English language.

Completing Beginning Language (103) and Continuing Language (114) will meet this Track requirement but students must also complete Intermediate Language (223) to meet the B.A. requirement. Students placed above the Intermediate Level can meet the B.A. and Track requirement by taking one course above 223. |
