Bachelor [Russian Studies] From Vassar College

Students who are considering the option of majoring in Russian are urged to begin the study of the language in their freshman year, continuing with intermediate and advanced language courses in their sophomore and junior years. For those who will be starting their language study here, this sequence is mandatory unless one of these levels is covered in an accredited summer program. However, those who have taken Russian in high school or have a knowledge of the language from home should sign up for a placement test that will indicate the appropriate level at which they should enroll.
