Cost of American University

Most big state universities offer very good language instruction. Your daughter would be better off studying there for a whole lot less money, then doing a few study abroad summers/semester etc., to polish her language skills. Also, the CIA has for years subsidized the study of exotic languages at large publics, and probably still does today. I would recommend your daughter talk to the language professors at your flagship university about what contacts they have with the government in terms of language grants. Of course, these have to be languages the government needs. It won’t be Spanish or French.
