No. In addition to our subject ocurses, you can choose to enroll in intensive German language training at whatever level you find yourself, from elementary/beginner to advanced, if you are (or intend to be) a German major/minor at home and/or if you have any demonstrated prior knowledge of German beyond the absolute beginner level. Absolute beginners can opt for the double-course intensive track Beginner German 1&2 or for our single-course Experiential Beginning German section.
