Department of Spanish and Portuguese

Prerequisite: HISP-S 200 or equivalent. 

The final basic language course continues the work of HISP-S 200 with emphasis on the four skills and on critical thinking skills.  Writing exercises and short literary and cultural readings are included. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to interpret and reflect on a variety of contemporary issues that were introduced in the first-year Spanish courses. Courses are conducted in Spanish at a level appropriate for the course.  Grades are based on exams, homework, compositions, participation, attendance, and a final exam. Homework load is substantial; all homework is done online. After successful completion of this course, the foreign language requirement is fulfilled for schools that require a 4th -semester proficiency. For those students who wish to go on for a minor or major in Spanish, the next course to take would be HISP-S 280 Spanish Grammar in Context. 

We have a equivalent course to take for Heritage speakers.  Instead of taking HISP-S 250 you should take HISP-S 251.

Note:  HISP-S 251 is for Heritage speakers of Spanish.  Students who grew up with Spanish being spoken in the home.

Note:  HISP-S 251 counts the same and HISP-S 250 as it will fulfill the Foreign Language requirement for students who need a 4^th year language course.

Note: If you complete HISP-S 250 or HISP-S 251 and it is the first class you have taken in Spanish you may be eligible to claim special credit for HISP-S 200 if

1. You need to complete HISP-S 251 with a “C” or better.
2. You do not have S200 on your transcript yet.
3. You are NOT a native speaker of Spanish.

Note: HISP-S 251 counts the same as HISP-S 250 for the Spanish major and minor degrees.

Note: HISP-S 251 is equivalent to HISP-S 250
