The Spanish major is a minimum prerequisite major. Students who meet the prerequisites will be admitted, provided they can complete the major requirements within the UW's academic satisfactory progress policy. Applications to the Spanish major are accepted year-round.
Admission Requirements:
- Completion of SPAN 203, with a minimum cumulative 2.70 GPA for all Spanish coursework; and
- A minimum 2.5 grade in each Spanish course.
Students who meet all of the eligibility requirements listed above should schedule an appointment with Humanities Academic Services (HAS) for an advising meeting to complete the major declaration process. This is a simple and easy process, and our HAS advisors are eager to help you!
For additional questions regarding admission to the Spanish Major, such as admission prerequisites, completed coursework in Spanish at another college or university, or adding Spanish as a second major, please contact HAS at has-center@uw.edu.
