It is actually fairly common (but not universal) not to require foreign language for engineering bachelor’s degrees, even if other majors at the same college may have such a graduation requirement.
Of course, some “open curriculum” schools like Evergreen State, Amherst, and Brown do not have foreign language graduation requirements.
However, the general answer to your question is that you need to investigate each college of interest individually to see whether its graduation requirements include foreign language to a higher level than the student is likely to be capable of attaining.
