I am an IB Senior looking to be admitted for Fall 2018 semester for FSU, but I have one issue. On the website it states:
“* Students must have earned a minimum of two sequential units of credit in one world language (e.g. Spanish I and Spanish II) or American Sign Language.”
My Spanish stats through my four years of high school and one year of middle school are:
Spanish 1 Pre-IB (Middle School for High School Credit) - D - (Both Semesters)
Spanish 1 (FLVS for Grade Forgiveness) - A - (Both Semesters)
Spanish 2 Pre-IB (10th Grade) - D - (Both Semesters)
Spanish 3 IB (11th Grade) - C - (Sem 1) - A - (Sem 2)
Spanish 5 IB (In Progress)
Would my earning of Spanish credits in a non-sequential form pose a threat to my admission into any Florida university?
It is likely that passing Spanish 3 is sufficient for the purpose of many universities that ask for two years of high school foreign language, but you should ask each university directly if its web site is not clear.
You have Spanish 1, Spanish 2, and Spanish 3. You also have Spanish 5. That meets the requirements/example that FSU has listed of Spanish 1 and 2.
Your bigger concern and the bigger red flag would be that you have multiple grades of a D on your transcripts. That’s a big negative that can (and often does) get people deferred to the spring decision or outright rejected.
