Only two years of foreign language?

<p>I tried to take Spanish 3 online but the teacher and the system were way too awful. I don't want to take the class at my school either because we have horrible foreign language teachers and I don't have room for it. </p>

<p>Besides foreign language, I've taken the most rigorous course load even while taking fine arts classes for a chunk of the day (you audition for an arts class at this place and it's not the typical fine arts classes at a normal school). I'm ahead of everyone in math and science, and I want to continue taking advanced classes while going to the Fine Arts Center. That means no more Spanish. </p>

<p>I've taken two years of a foreign language, and while colleges recommend 3 or 4, does it really matter since I'm most likely majoring in a STEM field? </p>

<p>I’m in a similar position - I only took two years of Italian, because I wanted to take a half-day vocational course as an upperclassman. What I did was have my guidance counselor writing a letter of recommendation explaining everything that seemed less-than-amazing on my transcript: why I only had two years of Italian, why I only took two core classes as a junior, why the vocational class isn’t accelerated/honors, etc.</p>

<p>You should be okay, especially if you’re EC’s are up to par and you have a good essay. Of course, if you already have any colleges in mind, check their websites or send them an email.</p>

<p>If any of the schools you are interested in actually require more foreign language courses then of course you should take more. Other than that, I don’t think only having two foreign language credits would be the sole reason for not getting into a school of your choice. </p>
