| 2 | Lower-Division Requirements The number of lower-division courses required depends on the student's score on the Placement Test in French. If a lower-division course is not needed, take Complementary Studies or SF State Studies or University Elective. The Placement Test in French can be taken via iLearn - please consult your advisor for further details. There are 45 questions in the online test: |
| 3 | To avoid taking additional units, it is recommended that you meet SF State Studies requirements (AERM, GP, ES, SJ) within your GE or major. |
| 4 | Depending on courses completed through Early Start, students in Pathway/Category III or IV may be required to enroll in a support course to complement their Quantitative Reasoning/B4 requirement. There are multiple course options for this pathway. Before enrolling in a B4 course, students should verify their MATH Pathway/Category in their Student Center. Information regarding the courses that correspond with your MATH Pathway/Category can be found on the Developmental Studies Office Website. |
| 5 | Consider taking a class combined with a laboratory or a separate lab to fulfill B3 if not already satisfied. |
| 6 | Complementary Studies Required of all candidates for the Bachelor of Arts degree in French are 12 units of Complementary Studies, which must come from courses bearing a prefix other than FR, and not cross-listed with FR. Complementary Studies for the French major can be satisfied via four possible routes:
Related disciplines typically include linguistics, literature, philosophy, history, education, and any aspect of greater French and Francophone Study. Where a course with a non-FR prefix is taken as a core requirement or elective for the French major, the said course may also (double) count towards Complementary Studies only via the Study Abroad option or the second major, minor, or certificate option listed above. Students satisfying Complementary Studies through the Foreign Language option are allowed a maximum of three units of overlap of MLL-prefix courses between French major and Complementary Studies units. Students satisfying Complementary Studies through the Related Subjects option are not allowed to double-count major and Complementary Studies units. |
| 7 | Students must complete the University’s GWAR requirement by taking FR 400GW, MLL 400GW, or CWL 400GW. |
| 8 | Electives met in the Major (18 units) Select any six courses in French numbered 300 to 699, not taken as a required course. Of these courses, select at least three numbered 400 to 699. |
