Information for students on their third year of study All 3 Hons students are required to spend their third year abroad. Students studying one language (whether Single Honours, or Joint with a non‐language subject), will spend a minimum of 30 weeks in the relevant country. Students studying two languages will spend a minimum total of 30 weeks abroad, with a minimum of 8 weeks in the country of each language studied. Of course, students may choose to spend longer abroad than these minimum requirements dictate, and we welcome such arrangements. By February of their third academic year, Honours students will be informed of the option courses available for final‐year study in their chosen language(s). Places will be allocated according to the criteria and deadlines specified at that time. Since we have to ensure that option groups do not become too large, we cannot always guarantee that students will be given their first choice of option; we are grateful for your understanding in this.
