Florida Statutes require that students admitted to an SUS institution demonstrate competency in a foreign language before the baccalaureate degree is awarded. Students who have earned an A.A. degree from a Florida public community college may be admitted to the upper division but must demonstrate competency prior to graduation with a baccalaureate degree.

Competency may be demonstrated in the following ways:

	Earning two credits of a single foreign language in high school or one credit in high school and the second semester (four semester hours) of the same foreign language at an accredited postsecondary institution.
	Satisfactory completion of two semesters (8-10 semester hours) of a single foreign language at a postsecondary institution prior to admission to UWF. Grades of "P" are acceptable for this requirement.
	Satisfactory completion of two semesters (8-10 semester hours) of a single foreign language at UWF. Grades of "P" are acceptable for this requirement.
	Successful completion of the following tests with appropriate test scores: CLEP subject matter examinations. MAPS-Latin examination published by the College Board. Proficiencyexamination at UWF.
	Undergraduate transfer students are EXEMPT if they received an A.A. from a Florida public community college prior to September 1, 1989; or they enrolled in a program of studies leading to an associate degree from a Florida public community college prior to August 1, 1989, and complete at least one academic course each twelve month period beginning with the student's first enrollment in a Florida public community college and continuing until the student enrolled at UWF.
	The SASS audit checks for completion of the requirement before admission (RW in the column if met in high school) or completion of the second semester college course.
