World Languages Credit by Exam
Earn world language credits for demonstrating
language proficiency in a language other than English!
About the FCPS World Languages Credit by Exam (WLCBE):
The exam assesses language proficiency in languages other than English.
Students who take the exam may earn up to three passing world language credits for levels one, two, and/or three for the language of the exam.
The credits may fulfill the world languages requirements for the Advanced Studies Diploma.
The FCPS WLCBE is also an approved assessment for awarding the Virginia Department of Education’s (VDOE) Seal of Biliteracy.
The exam is offered one time per school year for the languages listed on the FCPS World Languages Credit by Exam website (see below).
A student may participate in the exam two times per language, once per year, between grades 7 through 12. In other words, students have two chances per language to earn credits by taking the exam, but may only take the exam one time per year.
Registration:
September 8 through October 16, 2026.
Late registrations will not be accepted.
See your counselor to register or for more information.
Testing Time & Location:
