Preparing for the Major
To enroll in all Italian literature courses taught in Italian, students must pass first-year Italian [ITALLANG 1, 2, 3 or ITALLANG 1A, 2A] or complete the placement exam through the Language Center.
Students interested in the Italian Literature major subplan are highly encouraged to complete an Intermediate or Advanced Language course set which serve as the gateway to ITALIAN or ITALLANG courses taught in Italian at or above the 100 level. These courses may contribute to the program unit requirements.
To plan their course of study, including electives and any thematic or regional focus, students should consult the department's Program Worksheet, available from the DLCL Undergraduate Student Services Officer opens in a new tab, and discuss it with the Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS).
Declaring the Major
To declare, students should complete the Italian declaration worksheet opens in a new tab, meet with the faculty advisor for approval, and then declare via Axess.
Once approved by the department Director of Undergraduate Studies (DUS), submit the completed and signed worksheet to the DLCL Undergraduate Student Services Officer opens in a new tab via email.
