In order to meet graduation requirements, students must demonstrate proficiency in a second language.
Applicants who already have proficiency in more than one language will be most competitive for admission to the program. Applicants who do not have intermediate proficiency in a second language will need to work with their faculty advisors to make a language learning plan throughout the program.
There are many resources on campus for strengthening language skills, including language classes as elective coursework, the University’s Center for the Study of Language and Culture, and small grants to fund immersive language study.
