<p>I was looking around on the college confidential thread and many people on other threads were saying that because they didn't have english as their first language, they were placed in an esl class. my SAT scores were good enough for me to be placed in a WRT 102 class but I'm just worried that once I get to SBU, they'll automatically change my english class due to the fact that I put another language down as my first language on my application. Is it possible for that to happen? and if it is, how likely?</p>
<p>You will probably figure this stuff out when speaking to a academic counselor during course selection (later in the summer). If your SAT scores were good enough, you should be fine (especially based on the fact that you are being placed in 102, skipping the 101 course).</p>
<p>ok. thanks for your help</p>
