UIUC Engineering - Foreign Language Requirement

My son was admitted to Engineering - Is there a foreign language requirement? He took Spanish 1 in middle school, and completed Spanish 2 & 3 in high school. Would that be considered three years of a foreign language even though the first year was before high school?

Anyone who already has three years of high school level language will not need to complete any further language courses at UIUC for an engineering degree. That “three year” requirement is defined by level completed not necessarily number of actual years, and thus your son’s completion of Spanish 3 satisfies the language requirement.
