Hi all! This question goes to all potential applicants to CSU Fullerton's Fall 2022 ABSN program, but what documentation deems as verification of "Proficiency in a Second Language"?
This is copied and pasted from their website:
PROFICIENCY IN A SECOND LANGUAGE (OPTIONAL)
(10 POINTS POSSIBLE)
Applicants who are skilled in a language other than English will be awarded points on their application. There will be more information on this optional area within the Nursing application. All documentation is subject to verification and approval.
Native Speaker: You grew up speaking a language other than English, or in a bilingual home.
Fluent: You can keep up in almost any conversation in that language.
Proficient: Your vocabulary may still be limited (you might need a translation dictionary), but you have a good understanding of verb tenses and sentence structure.
Conversational: You have basic language ability, such as the ability to order food or get directions.

Thank you. I know it really sucks! I wish they updated us on what other things they needed from us. My AP scores got archived since it has been nearly ten years ago since I took them, so I think that’s what they’re missing. CSUF probably never received them ?

hey monique,
if you are using AP scores for any future apps be sure to submit an archive request form (https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/sending-scores/send-or-get-archived-scores) via college board.
FYI it's expensive and takes forever because you can only request them via fax or mail (ridiculous I know).
so if you can manage it I would highly recommend taking the course to cover whatever prereq you are using your AP scores for. it'll save you a lot of trouble long-term.

what do you mean by taking a course to cover a prereq you're using your AP scores for?
