Students who take French can obtain a certificate with the completion of 15 credit hours and a minimum average GPA of 3.0 within those classes. Students may take a Placement Test and be awarded up to 6 credit language hours toward the certificate, given that they complete a higher-level class taken at Flagler with a B or better. The certificate is available only to full-time, degree-seeking students of Flagler College.
Purpose of World Language Certificate: The certificate program allows students to gain academic recognition for their foreign language work short of completing a major or minor. This form of recognition is better understood outside of academia than a minor. This certificate will benefit students in majors or minors in which language competency is an important component (International Studies, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Education, International Business).
Transfer credits may not be used to fulfill World Languages Certificate requirements. The certificate is not available to native and heritage speakers.
Recognition: The completion of the certificate will be mentioned in the student’s transcripts. The official certificate will be delivered separately upon graduation.
