Dropped a class after realizing that I don't need it...

<p>Hey guys, I just dropped Spanish 2 after realizing that I didn't need it because I took 1 year of Spanish 2 in HS. </p>

<p>So, this is my question: How do I report this change of schedule without making it seem like I will not complete IGETC without this course? On the Berkeley application I stated that this course would complete my language requirement and I would think the other UC's would automatically assume that I am taking Spanish 2 to fill my IGETC req.</p>

<p>Should I just send each campus an email describing the reason why I dropped? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I though IGETC says you need 2 years of the same language…</p>

<p>It depends on which CCC you attend. For example, SMC only requires one semester of a foreign language.</p>

<p>Oh I know my CCC is the same for college level work I should rephrase my reply. As what I forgot to add was I though IGETC says you need 2 years of the same language if using it from high school. As I took spanish 1-2 for a year and then 3-4 which is my second year.</p>

<p>That’s what I thought – two “years” of the same language </p>

<p>But I stumbled on this: <a href=“http://www.asccc.org/icas/Docs/Final%20IGETC_Standards_v1_1_06-04-09.pdf[/url]”>http://www.asccc.org/icas/Docs/Final%20IGETC_Standards_v1_1_06-04-09.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Look at 10.6.2b</p>

<p>As long as you took a level 2 language, it qualifies. I verified this with a counselor and with the graduation office. </p>

<p>So anyone have any recommendations on what to do? Don’t know how to tell them I dropped the class but am still qualified for IGETC.</p>

<p>lookin thank you for posting that I may not need my spanish 2 class now at my CCC. As I completed spanish 1+2 in high school, but that was only a year so I need to find out.</p>

<p>Lookin when you figure out what to do please post it.</p>

<p>If you’re completing the igetc, just take a class that satisfies LOTE. </p>

<p>OR</p>

<p>Have your HS transcript ready.</p>

<p>I’m doing a language class next sem. My counsellor said my hs transcript abroad is a gamble.</p>

<p>Well, I already satisfied the IGETC language requirement, so I’m just dropping the Spanish 2 class I signed up for.</p>

<p>On my Application however, I wrote that I will be taking Spanish 2 to cover the language portion of the IGETC.</p>

<p>How do I inform the colleges I am applying to that I have dropped Spanish 2 but I have fulfilled the language portion of the IGETC with previous classes taken in HS. I’m afraid the information will be lost and they will only see that I dropped Spanish 2.</p>

<p>If I were you just don’t drop. It makes you more competitive because you’re proficient in Spanish.</p>

<p>O wait you dropped?</p>

<p>Email them!</p>

<p>Call each of the universities you applied to and ask for specifics. From my understanding, they will provide you with an e-mail address to explain your situation.</p>

<p>I had to report a class drop as well and I called UCB and UCD and they didn’t given me a specific email address. They had told me to update the Berkeleyapp and the general UC Update form. I had faxed them these changes as well, so everything should be worked out, but I was wondering if they gave you an email address in your experience?</p>
