<p>OP, you’re asking about college credit, but you should look into your local school district’s policy on native speakers. Where my D goes to HS native speakers CAN test out of the foreign language requirement and I believe, get HS credit for their ability. As it doesn’t apply to us, I don’t know the particulars, but it’s not limited to Spanish speakers (the majority of those impacted). If you S can speak fluently with people in his native land, you probably have a case for getting credit. </p>
