<p>We are OOS, so I have questions about the Sunys in general, as well as Suny New Paltz and Cortland. If a student does not pass a certain level of a foreign language competence, and chooses a new foreign language in college, how many semesters are required for a non-foreign language major?</p>
<p>I think the best thing to do would be to go to each school’s website and check the general education requirements. The different schools may have different requirements.</p>
<p>I don’t have the answer to your question, but New Paltz has a number of places in place to get questions answered. One is their facebook group
[SUNY</a> New Paltz | Facebook](<a href=“http://www.facebook.com/pages/New-Paltz-NY/SUNY-New-Paltz/5659124699]SUNY”>Redirecting...)
The other is their AIM address where you can instant message them during the weekdays…NewPaltzinfo.
Good luck.</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>D took span 101, 102 in summer school, 3 credits each. 6 credit hours will fulfill requirement at NP. She will need to pass a language test to study abroad.</p>
<p>Thanks Vahevala. I have some questions, so I just sent a PM to you.</p>

<p>If starting a new foreign language, 2 semesters are needed to fulfill the general ed requirement.</p>
<p>nysmile, thank you.</p>
