Foreign Language requirement- credit from middle school?

Applying to College
1

<p>I took Spanish 101/2 and 201/2 in 7th and 8th grade and was in Spanish 301/2 and Spanish IV my freshman and sophomore year. Then I did not continue AP Spanish to instead double up in chemistry and physics.</p>

<p>For colleges that recommend or require 4 years of foreign language does this count? I know the courses are the exact same, but I'm wondering if taking it before high school counts as part of the 4 years. </p>

<p>I think it would because even if I took AP Spanish that would only be 3 high school years of spanish and I could not continue on in high school to four...</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Most often the requirement/recommendation of 4 years of a language means that you’ve completed courses through level 4 of the language. How you reached level 4 is typically not the issue.</p>

<p>If you’re in doubt, check with the admission office of the college/colleges that you’re considering.</p>
