Students may earn minors in French, German, Italian, and Portuguese through the Adventist Colleges Abroad (ACA) program. For each desired minor, students must complete 18 semester hours (approximately 27 quarter hours) at the 200-level or above. Approval of the academic advisor is required.
Note: For all ACA minors, students must complete at least eight upper division hours (300-400 level courses) in the minor discipline. Upon return from the ACA institution, students must also complete FL470 to fulfill the three-hours residency requirement.
Note: At many ACA campuses, students earn credit in quarter hours. Upon their return to Oakwood University, these credits will be converted to semester hours at a conversion rate of 1 quarter hour= 0.667 semester hour, 1.5 quarter hour=1 semester hour.

Adventist Colleges Abroad
Adventist Colleges Abroad (ACA) is a consortium of Seventh-day Adventist colleges and universities in North America under the auspices of the Office of Education of the North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists located in Columbia, Maryland. The ACA consortium provides qualified undergraduate students opportunities to study in other countries such as Argentina, Austria, Brazil, France, Italy, Korea, and Spain while completing the requirements of their programs at their home colleges. Studying abroad allows students to be immersed in the culture and life of another country while becoming conversant in its language. Students can minor in a foreign language through one of the ACA programs. Through such experiences students also may gain an appreciation of, and perhaps an inspiration for, mission or other multicultural services.
