Foreign Language Equivalencies
Academic credit for proficiency in a foreign language may be granted through an oral proficiency interview. The procedure is standardized in order to assess global speaking ability, measuring language production holistically by determining patterns of strengths and weaknesses. The proficiency levels are established by the American Council for the Teaching of Foreign Language.
Language Testing International provides oral proficiency testing for hundreds of languages. If you wish to earn credit for your proficiency in a language other than Spanish, view instructions to register for the test.

A maximum of 30 semester credits may be earned at 麻豆社 Fox University through examination or other non-classroom credit procedures. This includes all alternative credit opportunities.
