ADVANCED PLACEMENT CREDIT POLICY:

Students who complete FR, GR, SN 102 or 201 at NMU with a grade of "C" or better can receive advanced placement credit for the immediately prior course (101 or 102) in the sequence. Students need to bring in a copy of their transcript to the secretary in the Modern Languages and Literatures Department to obtain the credit.

Students majoring or minoring in a language can take the placement exam free-of-charge. French, German or Spanish 101 and 102 do not apply toward the major or minor.
