<p>I want to know if the information that I have is correct. </p>
<ul>
<li>you must take 4 semesters (2 years) of a foreign language in UT</li>
<li>if you took three years of a foreign language in high school, you do not have to take any foreign language classes in UT</li>
</ul>
<p>also, does the three classes in high school have to be an AP/Dual Credit class, or just any level?</p>
<p>That is correct. Any level it does not have to be AP/IB or Dual Credit. Good luck.</p>
<p>I just know College of Liberal Arts requirements. (The language requirements vary from college to college within UT.)</p>
<p>To earn a degree from the College of Liberal Arts, you need to show language proficiency equivalent to two years of college language classes.

<p>Even more details - this shows when you can take tests to show you know as much as you would learn in two years of college, and get credit for two years of college, for a fair number of languages:

<p>thanks :) i guess I'm done with my foreign languages then. yay for three years of spanish! but chances are I might choose another language for the fun of it :P</p>
<p>if you have taken three years of a language in high school, do you have to take some sort of test to prove that you are proficient? are these requirements new?</p>
<p>i hope there won't be a test and only a transcript will suffice. but not sure on that one.</p>
<p>Yeah – does anyone know exactly how you prove that you took 3+ years in high school? Just give them a transcript?</p>
<p>Yeah they accept it if its a C+ or higher.</p>
<p>It depends on your college. Engineering only requires 2 years of hs credit. It does not require any foreign language in its degree plans.</p>
<p>does it have to be one of the spanish, french, german, italian, chinese bunch that is pretty common or can it be a language of your own choosing?</p>
<p>im born and raised in sweden(yes international student) and so im fluent in swedish, would that count if i took a test and proved it do you think ? cuz i took 3 years of swedish in high school, cuz i was in sweden :p</p>
<p>i think it does. but i think u still have to do some test when u get in the univ. im not sure about that though.</p>
