Opportunities for Heritage Speakers!
Welcome to the Spring 2023 semester!
Are you a native or heritage speaker of Spanish? Did you grow up speaking Spanish with family members? If so, we wanted to let you know about a unique opportunity to study Spanish alongside your peers.
The Department of Modern Languages is proud to be a pioneer in Spanish for Heritage Speakers. Studies show that Spanish-speaking students who enroll in Spanish for Heritage Speakers courses have higher academic success rates.
*Spanish for Heritage Speakers courses provide students with practical language skills
*Spanish for Heritage Speakers courses provide students with an understanding of Hispanic cultures
*Spanish for Heritage Speakers courses explore issues of the identity of Spanish speakers in the United States
This experience leads to higher paying jobs after graduation, as bilingual, bicultural, and biliterate job applicants are more attractive to employers and earn higher salaries on average.
Most heritage speakers can enroll in Spanish 2315 after taking the CLEP test and earning credit for SPAN 1441, 1442, and 2313, thus saving thousands of dollars. Visit https://www.uta.edu/student-success/resources/testing-services/credit-by-examination/clep.
If you have credit for Spanish 3 (or SPAN 2313) and are a heritage speaker of Spanish, you can enroll in SPAN 2315 immediately. Please email the Department of Modern Languages to be cleared for registration: modladvisor@uta.edu.
Best wishes for a successful Spring 2023 semester!
