[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wondering. DD is a native speaker of Spanish but took 4 years of HS Spanish, including the AP class. Is this gonna be counted against her by the UVA?[/quote] Native or heritage speaker?[/quote] How would UVA know besides an essay? she could even be a family with heritage but gave up the language like: Germans, Italians, Irish, ... 4 or 5 years of Spanish is so common as is French, German, Latin, and soon Russian and Chinese. [b]This wont move the needle either way. [/b]It will be a check box and then ignored. Our pov is that it should - learning a language from scratch is much harder than having family support. Reality check is that for admissions it wont make or break the deal. Having no second language then that would mean something.[/quote] NP. What about a 3rd language? Does demonstrated proficiency in 3 languages matter to UVA ? (move the needle either way.? )[/quote]
