Language Graduation Requirement: Non-native speakers of Spanish must demonstrate a minimum Intermediate level of Spanish before graduation.

To be exempt from Spanish requirement: ​

• Show an official DELE or SIELE B1 certificate (send it to languages.university@ie.edu )
• Place out of Spanish Intermediate level at IEU Language center (take the placement test)

​

Either of these means you don’t need to take Spanish lessons.

Freshman students taking Spanish classes have two options (indicate option on placement test):

​

• Take Basic and Intermediate Spanish language classes during your first two years at IEU at no additional cost.​​
• Study High Intermediate or Advanced Spanish in classes that prepare you for an official exam in Spanish at a rate which includes reduced group sizes, extra tutorials and overall attention to student’s needs.
