Hi everyone! I indicated interest to the Residential College on my application, but upon further research I am a bit apprehensive. Does anyone know if the intensive language requirement is as daunting as it seems? Thanks
I just completed my first semester in the RC taking Spanish. I won’t lie, it can be hard but if you’re interested in language and really want to be proficient, it’s not terrible. Which language are you interested in?
Probably either Spanish or French. I took Japanese in middle school, but other than that, I havent taken any languages. Language has never been one of my top interests, either. Would I be better off looking at other learning communities? @vkugal
If you are not big on the additional requirements in the RC, I would look into other learning communities. The RC is very different than other learning communities insofar that it is almost its own separate academic unit (part of LSA, but many added requirements). It has the heaviest involvement/commitment of any learning community.
