<p>Hi, I submitted my UC app on Tuesday morning, but I realized that I forgot to find out something. For years, I took Mandarin at a Chinese School, and I was able to receive 40 (10 a year) foreign language credits and an A in all four years, as verified by the Chinese school and approved by my high school. These are in addition to my credits for taking four years of Spanish. So I am wondering: Would the UCs accept this and use these grades toward calculating my GPA and when evaluating me? And which portion (as in which year) would I enter these grades? I am planning to call one of the offices tomorrow to ask about this, but since they are closed right now I thought I'll ask if anyone on CC has experience with this. :) Thanks.</p>
<p>Hm.. I took chinese for three years at community college and put it in the appropriate year slots.
Are your classes UC-approved? If so, just add the school and add the classes when you took them.</p>
<p>Sorry, I didn't make clear that I finished the courses before I started high school, but I went back with a form that I got from the guidance office, and the Chinese school principal gave me letters and signed the form to give me the credits. So it wouldn't be accurate if I just split up the four years and assign a year to each year of high school. They should be UC-approved; the way they are listed on my transcript makes them look like any other foreign language course, but I'm not sure what exactly to do with them.</p>
<p>Thanks for your input!</p>
