[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good Lord, this forum is a hot bed of misinformation.

There is no college the requires 4 years of a foreign language. Many colleges do not even recommend foreign language. Here is a site that collects this data from the common datasets:

[b]SLACs are more likely to require foreign language (but not 4 years), and to recommend 4 years.[/b] [/quote]

Going back to OP's question, does the 4 year count include HS courses in middle school?

In our case, DC will be finishing language level 4 as a junior.  Struggling to decide if they should move on to L5 (not doing AP given the load with other APs) or do something they want to do (like photography). [/quote]
This is a common question. There is no one size fits all answer. It's unlikely to be a decisive factor for admission to a highly selective school - admission would depend on the rest of the app, how much rigor.[/quote]
