How to apply for a Major or Minor in Spanish
We encourage students to obtain a Spanish Major. In order to do so, students
may come to the Department main office, located in SAC 303 and fill out a
form to declare their major. Majors will be assigned an advisor from the Spanish
faculty, and the paperwork will be sent to the Dean's office, so that their
major will appear on their academic transcript. You may also fill out the form
on line and send it to
anne-Marie.Joyce@villanova.edu. She will assign you an advisor from
the Spanish faculty.
You may instead apply for a Spanish Minor. However minors will not appear on the
student academic transcript, but students will be issued a certificate on their
senior year, upon completion of the requirements.
For additional information you may contact Dr. Carmen Peraita, Spanish
coordinator:
Carmen.Peraita@villanova.edu
Spanish Literature in English
The Division of Spanish also offers courses of Spanish literature in English
translation. Such courses may be used to fulfill the Advanced literature
requirement or a Humanities elective; however, they may not be used toward
credit requirements for the Spanish major or minor.
