Veritas offers a unique academic program, in that, while it is geared a bit more toward students interested in Spanish language skills, it also offers many English taught electives. Students may take intensive language courses with little to no Spanish proficiency.
For advanced speakers, there is a myriad of English electives in areas such as International Business, Communication, Environmental Sciences, and the Fine Arts.
