French
Offered at Langley, Richmond, and Surrey
Students who have completed French 11 will not receive credit at
UBC for Kwantlen FREN 1100 or FREN 1101. Students who
have completed French 12 and passed with a C or better will not
receive credit at UBC for any Kwantlen French courses below
FREN 1110.
Kwantlen University College offers various levels of French
courses. Since not all courses are offered in every semester or on
every campus, language students are strongly advised to seek
counseling from members of the Modern Languages department
before planning their program.
Admission Requirements
Since students come to Kwantlen from many different
backgrounds, it is often difficult to determine the best level of
entry for any individual. A letter grade from school is not in itself
sufficient indication of a student's suitability for a particular course,
particularly when there may have been a gap of a year or more in
his or her studies. We therefore have standardized placement tests,
which, together with a short interview, are intended to ensure
placement at the right level, thus avoiding frustration.
Students with a competence in the language beyond the level of the
course in which they are registered will be required to withdraw.
Students who are not sure of their language level should contact an
instructor.
For assessment or placement test information, please call the
following telephone number followed by the appropriate voice
mail number. Since FREN 1100 is an introductory language
course, there is no need for an assessment.
