Norwegian Language/Independent
Study Project Options
Macalester
study away policy states:
"If
you do not already have proficiency in the native or predominant language
of the country in which your program is based (equivalent to the successful
completion of at least two years of college level study), you must take
at least one course of language study per semester on the program. Such
study must be at a level equal to or higher than the last level of study
you completed in the language and constitute no more than half of your
course load on the program unless special arrangements are made before
departure with the Registrar, the International Center, and the appropriate
language department. You should direct any questions about your course
selections or language requirements to the Study Abroad Coordinator
at the International Center."
This means
that you must choose the Norwegian Language course option in SUST if
you have not completed two years of Norwegian language previously. Students
interested in studying Norwegian prior to enrollment in the SUST program
may register through ACTC for Norwegian language courses offered at
Augsburg College. (Students seeking an exception to this policy may
contact the Macalester study away office. Note that there is a 30-hour
Norwegian language non-credit mini-course required for all students
choosing the Independent Study Project option.)

Students from all majors
are encouraged to participate in SUST.
