  • £175 for a single module . October - December or January - May

Can I take more than one language at beginners level?

We would recommend that you don't set yourself such a challenge! Tackle one new language at a time and you will make more rapid progress.

Will I be able to continue with this language next year or after my placement year?

If you have successfully completed a language module, we would urge you to continue your language studies during your placement year and to pursue your studies at a higher level on your return to Aston.
