HOW CAN YOU GET COLLEGE CREDIT FOR HIGH SCHOOL FOREIGN LANGUAGE COURSES?
I’ve listened which if we have so most tall propagandize credits of unfamiliar denunciation we can take an examination or something as well as not have to take as most courses in college. I’ve taken 3 years of Spanish as well as dual years of Latin. Does it only rely upon what university we go to?

Three Options:
1) All colleges have you take a foreign language exam to be placed in the appropriate level language class freshman year. So study hard and maybe you can place into 201 instead of 102.
2) Take AP Spanish or Latin. Most schools give you credit if you get a 4 or 5 on the AP exam, some will give you credit for a 3.
3) check with your high school and see if it’s possible for you to take Spanish at a local college. In the state where I live I was able to take college classes my senior year and it was all paid by the state. Or you could take it on your own during the summer. This way you’ll just transfer the credits to your school.
Yes you can you have to take the AP level classes. your high school should have these classes, when you take the exam for the class you will get a score from 1 to 5. different colleges give different amounts of credit for you score. 1-2 are failing. 3-5 are passing the higher the score the more credit you will get. the tests are quite hard they have many sections and are around 3 hours in duration. these AP tests are from the same people that give the SAT. Collegeboard. you can take this option or go to a local community college and take a the foreign language class, after you complete the class you can transfer the credits to the university you are going to.
Either take the AP test at your school or another near school (you can take the test even if you have not taken the AP Spanish or AP Latin test). But be aware not all colleges take AP credits. (but if they do alot give 10 credits for a 3 score, 15 credits for a 4 score and 20 credits for a 5 score).
Or most colleges have language placement tests. My spanish class took one of the on a Utah University website.
generally yes. but ask the school you want to get accepted into.
