<p>All of the universities in my state (for admission) require either 2 years of a second language in high school, or 2 quarters of a second language at a community college, or other college. A varietly of language proficiency tests are also acceptable (including a passing score on the SAT subject test and AP test </p>
<p>I am currently a community college student without two years of a second language in highschool. Only Spanish and German are offered in my community college, but I want to major in Chinese after transfering to the 4 year university.</p>
<p>Therefore, it seems backward to take a year or Spanish or German (or sign language), just to get into the U of O to take Chinese. (the state is Oregon). It would also delay my graduation by a year.</p>
<p>Instead, would it be okay to take a year of Chinese from an online college?</p>
<p>(ps. I already emailed this question to the uni, but sometimes these universities take weeks to answer questions)</p>
