Retro credit process for World Language study at University of Wisconsin Schools
Individual Campus Foreign Language Policies of UW schools.
DPI Retroactive Credit Summary from the Dep't of Public Instruction
Other OPTIONS :
AP costs $98
CLEP costs $85
Placement tests vary in cost from $0 at some schools who administer paper/pencil tests to a charge if it is a computer-based test through a testing organization. Students should be encouraged to look into the schools they are thinking of applying to.
Typically, Nathan Hale students have taken the retroactive placement tests instead of AP language tests, as they usually provide the most credits to students if they take a class and pass with B or better (most schools). Our students, in my opinion, have not enough background to take AP literature classes in their second language. (Unless you are reading all the Latin American/Spanish classics in Spanish as pleasure reading.
Who can speak a language other than English?
