What law, specifically? Have they cited it to you? Can you post a link to it here? It may be helpful to see how the law is worded, when it was passed, who introduced the bill, who voted for it, etc.

Knowing these things may help in understanding various issues such as:
- the spirit of the law as intended,
- whether the law allows (for example: "may") or requires (for example: "shall") college credit being granted for sophomores, juniors, seniors,
- whether the law truly disallows (for example: "shall not") freshmen from receiving college credit, or is merely silent on the issue,
- whether a discussion of the interpretation of the law might result in a qualified freshman receiving credit, (for example: student has completed all prerequisites, does all assigned work, earns required grade, achieves cut score, etc)
- the likelihood that the law would be changed.
