It is strongly recommended that all Spanish language students study overseas for a summer or semester in a UHM Spanish program. Students taking Spanish 201 and Spanish 202 may complete their H/SL requirement abroad. Spanish Minor students and LLEA BA in Spanish & Latin American Studies Majors (LLEA BA/SLST) are strongly encouraged as well to apply to earn 6 credits of advanced Spanish (300+) overseas.
