To be honest the language requirement at UMPI is completely useless and a waste of time IMO. It is one of the biggest turn offs to going to UMPI for the majority of majors. I understand it for something like International Relations, Linguistics or International Business but for most degrees it is nonsense. I have no idea why it is required for the BAS or a check box degree like the BLS. The entire point of applied degrees (BAS) is they are more focused on courses related towards your major.
I remember my German teacher telling me in HS that I would not get into college without a good grade in her class, literally every single school I applied accepted me and they all said they did not care (or it was not important) about a language class because of my major.
