Placement with high school training in languagesOrdinarily two years of one foreign language in high school are considered the equivalent of one year of college language study for purposes of determining the course for which a student is eligible to continue. Normally, a student entering with some high school foreign language training enrolls in language courses as follows: a) After one year of language study in high school, Course 2 or 3 of that language; b) After two years, Course 4; c) After three years, Course 5 or 6. Special examination for foreign residenceStudents who have had foreign residence may, with the consent of the department, obtain up to 24 hours of special foreign language credit. This may be done by completing an upper division course with a grade of B or better; then, after payment of a special fee, the student will be permitted to take a special examination for 24 hours of lower division credit. Credit obtained by special examination is usually not transferable to other institutions. Courses of Instruction French 1. Elementary French Spoken and written French of moderate difficulty. A (5).
