SPA 481 Portfolio 2: Lit & Film Analys

Students who grew up speaking Spanish at home, or who acquired the language during a long stay in a Spanish-speaking country, or who actually speak Spanish as their first tongue might be able to demonstrate an advanced or superior command of the language. Thus, heritage speakers, native speakers, adult, returning, and non-traditional students (such as international students enrolled in a ESL program at Saint Rose, for instance) interested in pursuing the Certificate in Translation Spanish < > English, may apply for academic credit for learning acquired through life and work experience. In order to systematize this process, the Department of World Languages and Cultures (WLC) has developed a portfolio option, which allows students to document knowledge about the Spanish language and cultures acquired outside the classroom.

Students applying for the portfolio 1, 2, and 3 options may be awarded up to nine (9) credits of upper level elective course work, three (3) credits for each portfolio in the sequence.

Portfolio 2 must include:

• Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI)  level of Advanced Mid or Advanced High
• Essay on a work of literature or film originally written/released in Spanish
• Transcripts  including college and pre-college
