# Course does not include California government.
Foreign Language – If a student passes more than one CLEP exam in the same language other than English (e.g., two exams in French), then only one exam may be applied to the baccalaureate. For each exam in a language other than English, a passing score of 50 is considered “Level 1” and earns six semester units of baccalaureate credit; the higher score listed for each exam is considered “Level II” and earns additional units of credit and placement in Area C2 or GE Breadth, as noted.
