ACADEMIC MAP (Effective Summer 2025**)

*Please Note: Face-to-face/in-person instruction of this program is available ONLY at the main campus in Tallahassee, FL. This program is NOT available via Online/Distance Learning.*

This map is a term-by-term sample course schedule. The milestones listed to the right of each term are designed to keep you on course to graduate in four years. The Sample Schedule serves as a general guideline to help you build a full schedule each term. The General Education and Elective courses must be selected to satisfy all area and diversity requirements unless your program meets these requirements with major courses. Milestones are courses and special requirements necessary for timely progress to complete a major. Missing milestones will result in one of two types of map registration stops. The first level (Degree Map Off-track) is placed following grade posting if the student has missed a milestone (course and/or GPA) for the first time in the major. If a student is in non-compliance with milestones for two (2) consecutive semesters (excluding summers), a Major Change Required stop is placed on the student's registration.

The Russian major requires thirty semester hours numbered above 2220, including RUS 2330, RUS 3400, RUS 3420 and at least twelve (12) semester hours of Russian and Slavic coursework at the 4000-level or above. Majors must complete 12-15 hours for a minor (more if required by minor department). All courses taken to fulfill the 30 hours of major coursework must be taken for a letter grade. A grade of C minus or better must be earned in each course applied toward any major or minor degree earned in the department.

Placement tests are available through the FSU Assessment & Testing Facility for French, German and Spanish. Students with prior proficiency in languages other than French, German, and Spanish must consult an advisor in the Department of Modern Languages for proper course placement. If you are placed above a milestone, it is important that you continue with the next milestone in its place. Total hours above 120 vary based on language proficiency level of student.

**Effective Summer 2025, newly matriculated students who planned to pursue the B.A. in [Russian] will be reclassified as pursuing the [Russian] major under the B.A. in Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures.

Co-majors will be reclassified as pursuing the Dual Languages major under the B.A. in Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures.

Students pursing the B.A. in [Russian with Business] will be reclassified as pursuing the [Russian] major under the B.A. in Modern Languages, Literatures, and Cultures and can then choose one of the business minors offered by the College of Business to meet the College of Arts and Sciences minor requirement.**

Only one SPT course may count toward the major. SPN3400 is not open to heritage speakers, they should take SPN3350 instead. Majors must complete 12-18 hours for a minor.

Sport Management

ACADEMIC MAP (Effective Summer 2025 and after)

*Please Note: Face-to-face/in-person instruction of this program is available ONLY at the main campus in Tallahassee, FL. This program is NOT available via Online/Distance Learning.*

This map is a term-by-term sample course schedule. The milestones listed to the right of each term are designed to keep you on course to graduate in four years. The Sample Schedule serves as a general guideline to help you build a full schedule each term. The General Education and Elective courses must be selected to satisfy all area diversity requirements unless your program meets these requirements with major courses. Milestones are courses and special requirements necessary for timely progress to complete a major. Missing milestones will result in one of two types of map registration stops. The first level (Degree Map Off-track) is placed following grade posting if the student has missed a milestone (course and/or GPA) for the first time in the major. If a student is in non-compliance with milestones for two (2) consecutive semesters (excluding summers), a Major Change Required stop is placed on the student's registration.

The Sport Management major prepares individuals to pursue advanced degrees in sports administration or to seek employment in some aspect of the sports industry. The Sport Management major is a Specialized Admission/Limited Enrollment major and admits to upper division in the Fall semester only. You must complete all prerequisite courses and submit an application to the Department on or before March 1st of spring term preceding admissions.

* All students are expected to maintain a minimum GPA of 2.75 and achieve a grade of C minus or higher in all courses taken. At any point when a student has any combination of three (3) D or F grades, the student may be dismissed from the program. *

The Statistics major works best if you start in the highest mathematics courses for which you have prerequisites. It is also beneficial for you to take STA2122 prior to the start of Term 5. Because collateral requirements for the major also satisfy the minor requirements in Mathematics, you may choose additional electives. Students anticipating graduate study in statistics are encouraged to take STA4322 and additional mathematics courses such as MGF 3301 (Introduction to Advanced Mathematics).
