Students may count a maximum of three (3) courses from a semester abroad or four (4) courses from a full year abroad toward the major.

I don't think I can codify this. Conditions embedded on the length of the program I don't have logic for.

In order to count toward the major, courses taken abroad in Germany must be taken in German.

I also can't codify this, since I don't know about these courses, so I think both of these are better served as overrides.

Conditions embedded on the length of the program I don't have logic for.

Credits transfer separately from requirement fulfillment, so the department will need to mark which requirement certain courses count towards. And they'll have to be the controllers of keeping the count down as appropriate.

Additional question: the text for "electives" reads as follows:

Three additional courses relevant to German language, culture, or history (may include German 232, a German Interim abroad, and a maximum of one course in English with a significant German focus taught by a St. Olaf instructor)

There are three German 250-level courses, but one two are required.

Can the third count as an elective?

Answer: Yes (Wendy Allen, Feb. 15, 2019). The overflowing 250/270-level courses count as electives.
