How important is a Programming Language Certification?

Hi,
I’ve recently entered the world of computer programming and it has come to my attention that coders can take examinations to certify their fluency in any specific coding language. If I were to acquire one of these certificates, how might that affect my standing with regards to college admissions. I’m mildly acquainted with ActionScript, and I’ve just the other day begun working with JavaScript, so I still have a long way to go before I could become certified in any language. Since I will be starting my senior year in the fall, would it be worth my while to push for a certification before I send out my applications, or would its effect be relatively negligible.

Thank you

It would be good to put in as an award/recognition but that is pretty much it. I was Web Development/Design certified last month.
