In addition to courses listed above, SPAN 5020-Spanish for Graduate Students is offered every semester and session.  SPAN 5020 allows non-Spanish graduate students to earn graduate credit for undergrad Spanish classes. Graduate students enrolled in SPAN 5020 may join any section at any undergraduate level to begin to learn or to continue to learn Spanish. SPAN 5020 may be repeated semester after semester until students attain their desired proficiency in the language. Contact the department for more information or for assistance with registration.

If you have not taken classes recently (or ever) at WMU, you will find the online graduate application to be quick and easy. Questions can be answered by e-mailing or calling the Office of Admissions (269 387-2000). With non-degree graduate status (permission to take graduate classes) you can enroll in graduate-level courses even though you may not have applied yet for a particular graduate program.

Do you need help with registration or want more information about Spanish classes? Call (269) 387-3023 or email spanish@wmich.edu.
