Foreign Language

For the 2015-2016 school year, Spanish is the only language available at LBCC for students wishing to pursue a foreign language degree. Transfer credit language classes earn four transfer credits each and emphasize speaking, reading, and writing, helping students to build proficiency. Students wishing to pursue an AS degree in foreign language other than Spanish may study that language through the LBCC/OSU degree partnership program or apply credits toward the degree that have been earned through College Now. Students planning to transfer to Oregon State University are strongly encouraged to consider dual enrolling at OSU and LBCC. The Degree Partnership Program (DPP) is an arrangement between LBCC and Oregon State that allows students to take classes at both institutions (see www.linnbenton.edu/degree-partnership for more information). Make an appointment to meet with an advisor in Foreign Language to learn more about your options with DPP. Make this appointment at least one term in advance of when you plan to take classes as a dually-enrolled student at OSU. If you are seeking financial aid, be sure to list both LBCC and OSU when you complete your FAFSA.
