This is a typical course of study for a student entering with a medium level of Spanish and a minimum SAT Critical Reading and Writing score of 620. This sample illustrates the most general four-year course of study for students intending to complete a B.A. in Economics from the College of Arts and Sciences, with a minor in Political Science. The student would also be completing the Ibero-American Certificate. It is intended to serve as a model, and might vary according to course offerings.
