below. Because of the highly competitive nature of this examination and the relatively
small number of vacancies, it has been found that unless students have an average of 3.5
or better (approximately one half A's and one half B's), they are not likely to qualify.
 It is important that in the University College the student preparing for the exami-
nation start at least one foreign language and take other courses listed to complete
his electives. Attention is called to the fact that much of the examination is general,
covering the material of the University College courses, and that the successful com-
pletion of C-l, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, and C-6 is required. In addition, the courses listed
below are recommended. In most instances these are minimum programs, and ad-
ditional courses may be elected. If the courses listed cannot be completed by the time
the B. A. degree requirements are met, an additional year's study leading to the M. A.
degree is recommended, particularly since many of the candidates for the Foreign
Service do hold a graduate degree.
 The recommended courses for preparation for the Foreign Service examination
include: Political Science 201, 209-210, 403-404, 407-408, 409, and 425; Geography
203-204, and 381; History 245-246, 323, 325-326; Economics 205-206, 203; English
202, 402, and 453-454.
 If time permits and the student wishes further work along area lines, he may
select, depending upon the area of interest: Geography 385, 486, 487; History 481-482,
371-372. At least 18 hours in one language is necessary and a second language may
be elected on the examination. French, Spanish, German, Russian, and Portuguese
are acceptable.
