Sugrad-Thanks for the information. Maybe there is more effect up in Shamokin Dam as that is where we usually stay. Just have to wait and see.

Regarding foreign language placement, I am not really sure. We also have not received AP scores yet and I am uncertain as to whether a score of 4 or 5 will be a factor as well. My son took 6 years of French in middle/high school so he is hoping that he can at least place somewhere in the middle between intro and advanced.

Swatmom, has your daughter selected a residence hall preference? Son is trying for either Aikens or Reed as, from the descriptions provided, these seem to be the “middle of the road” amongst the four. Any thoughts on that Sugrad or others?

In addition, just talked to my son regarding foreign language. He states that he was told that 3 semesters of a foreign language are required. Depending on your testing score, you could place out of 2 of the 3 semesters. His score was 491, although that is meaningless to me and him as we do not know the max possible score.

Thanks to all for sharing your experiences/thoughts.
