  For students who come to Maryville with significant knowledge of the language, some of the above courses may be waived (SPAN 201, SPAN 202, SPAN 301, or SPAN 302). If more than two courses are waived, the student will need to increase the number of required elective courses in order to meet the minimum credit requirement of 15 hours for the minor.
