Suggest online school for linguistics

<p>Preferably, it would accept german, french, and spanish via CLEP.</p>

<p>It would also be nice if it accepts russian and ancient greek (the last one is a long shot), not via CLEP.</p>

<p>Any suggestions?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Bumping bump.</p>

<p>I don’t understand what you mean by an online school for linguistics that would “accept” those languages. Are you looking for an online degree-granting school, one that would grant course credit toward the degree based on demonstrated proficiency in those languages?</p>

<p>Do you understand that “linguistics” is the scientific study of language, not learning how to speak or read specific languages? [Linguistics</a> - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistics]Linguistics”>Linguistics - Wikipedia)</p>

<p>MIT offers several free sets of course materials in Linguistics as OpenCourseWare.

However, these courses are not part of a degree-granting program.</p>

<p>"one that would grant course credit "</p>

<p>That is what I meant.</p>

<p>"not learning how to speak or read specific languages? "</p>

<p>Thanks for setting me straight. :o</p>

<p>It sounds like this is the sort of thing you’re looking for:
[Online</a> Courses - School of Modern Languages](<a href=“http://www.modlangs.gatech.edu/online-courses]Online”>Online Language Courses | School of Modern Languages)</p>

<p>They offer Russian, Chinese, and Japanese courses online. It appears that Georgia Tech does not ordinarily grant college credit for these courses unless you are a current or former college student, and are admitted to GT as a special student. Apparently, if you already have some proficiency in the language, placement tests are available to determine what GT online course you should take.</p>
