A message from Tim Ashlock, academic advisor for French, Italian, and German:

· Beginning Fall 2010, all three languages are moving to a three-semester sequence as follows: 506, 507, 612.

· There will be multiple sections of ITL, FR and GER 612 in Fall 2010. (Note: the course schedule will still say that a B or higher in 507, 508K or 604 is required in order to take 612. However, this will NOT be enforced. A student must earn a C or higher in 507 or 604 in order to take 612.)

· The last time ITL, FR or GER 312L will be offered is Fall 2010. There will be limited sections available, but we should be able to accommodate all students currently taking 312K.

· 312K will NOT be offered in Fall 2010.

· 312K and 312L will both be offered in Summer 2010: 312K in first summer session, 312L in second summer session.

· It’s possible that we may offer 312K and 312L during subsequent summer semesters, but nothing has been decided as of yet. To be safe, please advise students for now on the assumption that it will no longer be possible to take 312K and L at UT Austin.

· Students will still have the option to take the two-semester sequence: 604 and 612.
