ELIGIBILITY
The program is open to all academically eligible undergraduate UW-Eau Claire students. You must be in good academic standing and have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.3. You may apply as a freshman but must have at least sophomore standing by the time the program begins.
COURSES/COURSE EQUIVALENCIES
During Spring 2013, you will take a three-credit preparatory course, ARTH350 (GE-IV). While on the seminar, you will take a three-credit interdisciplinary course (IDIS 355, GE-V) on the art history, geography, and music of Central Europe. The course fulfills three credits of the Foreign Language/Foreign Culture requirement. (Note that students pursuing a B.A., B.F.A., or B.M. degree in the College of Arts & Sciences MUST take the equivalent of two semesters of a foreign language to fulfill the FL/FC requirement. See the university catalogue for details.)
