<p>On the Harvard app, it asks you to list all the foreign languages you can read, speak, or write. do you have to be fluent in a language to list that foreign language? I just started studying French this January, so I can merely carry out basic conversation, read rudimentary text, and write short sentences. Should I list French as a language I can "speak, read, or write"?</p>
<p>i wouldn’t…</p>
<p>why don’t you put a footnote or write in brackets that you cant speak it fluently yet. If you don’t have enough space, write something like:
French(Basic)</p>
<p>or something, then mention it in your essay or somewhere else in your app that you only started taking classes a few months ago
I dunno,that’s what I would do…</p>
<p>Good luck!! =)</p>
