<p>I’d suggest the Defense Language Institute if you are willing to go into the military for 4 years - (about 1.5 of those would be spent at DLI before spending a couple years as a translator).</p>
<p>MIddlebury College comes to mind as well, but they are highly selective in terms of admissions and there are never any ‘sure things’ there. I don’t know of any schools in Missouri that just blow me away in terms of that field.</p>
