Applying to college

Hi, I am a California high school student. I get enough ACT score but I have a problem with my transcript. I came to America and got in high school in junior year. That is why I do not have enough credit for English. I plan to take 3 English classes in senior year. Is it bad or unqualified for 4 years- college. Thank you for your help…

Email UC’s and CSUs (+ Pomona, Harvey Mudd, Oxy… as relevant) to ask how they treat the 4-year English requirement for immigrant kids who arrived in the us junior year. As far as I know, if you took English at your home country’s school as well as “native language/literature”, they count those but check with them.

I agree - you need to ask your target schools directly. Ideally while you still have time to adjust your Sr schedule. You may get starkly different answers from each campus.
