Spanish, Minor

This is an archived copy of the 2022-23 catalog. To access the most recent version of the catalog, please visit http://catalog.fitnyc.edu/.

Nothing looks better on your resume than a minor in a foreign language: French, Italian, Japanese, or Spanish. It gives you the competitive edge you will need in the international market. It tells your future employer that you have taken that extra step in learning to communicate with other cultures.

A Spanish minor requires 5 courses in Spanish or, as an alternative, 4 courses in Spanish and an MC course with modified assignments, with permission of the instructor and after you have completed level 214 of the language.

The following requirements below are intended for students declared after Fall 2022. If you have already declared your minor, please speak to your academic advisor for assistance.
