Latin - Beginning, Microcredential

Satisfactory completion of the required courses would allow the student to develop the necessary skills to conduct beginning-level comprehension in Latin by acquiring appropriate vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing, listening comprehension, speaking capabilities, and an introduction to cultures using Latin to communicate.

Students may repeat a required course one time. Failure to achieve the "C" or better grade after one repeat attempt will have the student dismissed from the microcredential in Beginning Latin.

Students may complete part or all of the required courses for the Latin microcredential at Saint Louis University-Madrid.
