Could that fill her second langauge nitch for college applications? Or perhaps she could take and pass something like the NY State Regents which is aimed at high school kids. She'd have a second language, it just would not have been studied in school. She could include that information when applying to colleges on her resume. Or perhaps the guidance people could attach it to her transcripts when sending them out. I don't know it this is possible. But I've found that creative solutions are often the ones that work for us.
