<p>Please help me understand the ASSIST.ORG guideline concerning my FOREIGN LANGUAGE transfer requirement. I'm not sure how much I really need--is IGETC enough or do I need "four college semesters" worth?</p>

<p>This is for Foothill College --> UC Berkeley --> Peace & Conflicts</p>

<p>I took 2 years of French in high school and French 3 in at a CCC.</p>

<p>"1) The L&S Requirements in Reading & Composition, Quantitative Reasoning, and
Foreign Language; OR
2) IGETC" </p>

<p>and</p>

<p>"- If you do not have native language proficiency in a modern language other than English and do not have a 5 in AP foreign language exam, take as many semesters of foreign language as possible before transferring. NOTE: Four college semesters = approximately five years of high school foreign language High school credit does not satisfy the foreign language proficiency requirement unless the student was educated outside the US in a system where the language of instruction was not English."</p>

<p>It’s saying that you can pick one or the other. You can either complete IGETC and be done with it, or you can follow the L&S requirements. You just can’t mix them.</p>

<p>The L&S foreign language requirements are listed at [Degree</a> Requirements-Foreign Language Requirement](<a href=“http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/requirements/fl.html]Degree”>http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/requirements/fl.html)</p>
