Harvard foreign language req.

<p>I am currently at a CCC, but am not taking a foreign language. I did take up to Spanish 4 in high school, but i didn't pass the AP test, and I only got a 4 on the IB SL test. Will this hurt my chances of transferring regardless of any of the other variables that go into admissions process?<br>
I've heard that the language "requirement" is not really a requirement, but I've also heard that it is. Also, does just taking the classes in high school with passing grades count or did i need to pass the AP/IB test with a 5/7?</p>
