This can be done in one of three ways: 1) taking 10100 and 10200; 2) placing into and taking 10200; or 3) taking the proficiency exam and testing into 20000 or above, in which case the requirement is met and no additional foreign language credits are required.

                Language courses taken in the Department of World Languages, Literatures and Cultures at Ithaca College for this requirement must be in a language other than English; must be taken for a letter grade; and students must earn a C- or better in language courses. As a department requirement, grades in language courses count toward department policies (only 4 credits at a C- or below may apply to courses in the major). In addition, American Sign Language cannot be used to fulfill this requirement.
