Foreign Language Requirement The following chart will help you determine whether you need foreign language at your chosen transfer university. Some universities require foreign language for admissions AND graduation. If you need to take foreign language, it is highly recommended that you take these classes at the community college level before transferring.
It is also important that you complete course sequences before transferring. The organization of the material will usually vary from college to college. For example, if you need the first year of a foreign language, you should complete it at the community college level.
