4 YEAR FLIGHT PLAN:
BA in Spanish (Heritage Track)
FAU is committed to your success as a student. One way we define student success is efficient and effective
progression through your degree program. This Flight Plan is a tool to assist you in planning the courses you should
complete and milestones you should reach during your undergraduate studies so you may graduate on time. It is our
intention that you complete this planning tool in collaboration with an academic advisor to ensure good understanding of:
• Which graduation requirements you have satisfied
• Which Intellectual Foundations and elective courses match your career plans
• How to balance coursework with your other responsibilities (e.g., employment) and optional activities (e.g.,
mentored research, study abroad, student organizations, leadership)
• How to get the most from your academic experience at FAU
Please note: This particular flight plan is only a generic model, and will not be suitable for every potential
Spanish major. This plan is merely intended to demonstrate how a first-time-in-college student with little or
no formal coursework in Spanish can accomplish this BA degree in four years (8 semesters) of full-time
study.
If you are interested in pursuing a degree in Spanish, be sure to schedule an appointment directly with an advisor in
the Department of Languages, Linguistics, and Comparative Literature. This is the only way you can make sure you
are following the degree path that is just right for you and that takes into account your individual level of language
proficiency. This is also the best way to guarantee that your overall “flight plan” minimizes those periods when you
are not actively studying, practicing, and living the language.
If you have prior knowledge of Spanish and have not yet taken Spanish at FAU, congratulations!! You have a jump
start on the major! We will make sure that your departmental advising appointment includes include a personalized
interview with one of our Spanish faculty members.
Your academic advisor will help you customize and maintain your Flight Plan during the next four years so that you
stay on track for success at FAU. In order to graduate on time, you will need to:
• Complete an average of 30 credit hours per year
• Earn 120 credit hours, at least 45 in the upper division (3000 or 4000 level)
• Earn at least 9 credit hours in summer coursework (or equivalent)
Your advisor will help you identify what additional milestones apply to you, as well as how you may even graduate
early or enter an accelerated graduate program. If you have any questions at all about your FAU Flight Plan, feel free
to contact any of the following individuals for assistance. They are here to help!

1. If you are considering graduate school,
remember that most institutions have
December or early January application
deadlines. Be sure to do research on the
programs you are interested in applying to,
know what the deadlines are, and ask your
faculty recommenders for letters at least one
month in advance. If you are interested in
applying for graduate study in our
department, keep in mind that February 1st of
the Spring semester is the preferred deadline
for early application, and students who have
applied by this deadline are much more likely
to receive competitive Graduate Teaching
Assistantships.
2. Students pursuing HONORS in the MAJOR
must carefully check ALL thesis submission
deadlines in order to have the designation
marked on the official FAU transcript.
Students should also be enrolled in a 4000level course, and have already secured the
