Foreign Language for Columbia

<p>Is 4 years of a foreign language a requirement for acceptence into Columbia? (For undergrads). Thanks.</p>

<p>No. My son took 3 and got in. However, I felt he was taking a chance when he did so. Be sure the rest of your transcript is very strong.</p>

<p>I also took three and got in</p>

<p>I believe that it is 2 required, but 4 preferred. I don't know this for a fact though.</p>

<p>3 in one, 2 in another (with a good SAT II), and waitlist. If language isn't ur thing, don't worry about it. But at least take three, I'd say.</p>

<p>i took 3 year of honors spanish and 1 year of AP......im pretty sure the requirement is 2 years</p>

<p>yeah I only took three years but my third year was level four</p>
