Planning Recommendations:
It is strongly recommended that students wishing to major in French participate in the Hendrix-in-Tours summer program after they have completed the 200-level sequence.
Language majors considering graduate study are strongly encouraged to take at least the Basic Sequence, typically the 110 and 120 numbered courses, in another language.
