Spanish Heritage Course Descriptions

If you have previous experience with the Spanish language (i.e, whether you learned it in a natural environment, studied abroad, or grew up in a Spanish-speaking country), we recommend taking the placement exam first so that you are enrolled in a course that is best for you.
