[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FYI - Colleges want to see a minimum of 2 years of a foreign language in high school. No matter how far your child gets in foreign language in middle school, they will need to take at least two years in high school to meet the college acceptance requirements for many schools.[/quote]
Can you name a specific college where this is the case?  I have heard that this is not really true. If your DC takes 3 years in MS and Language 4 in HS I have heard that this is fine for any college.  They do not need to take Language 5.[/quote]
We made out kid to repeat Lang 2 in 8th grade, to avoid Lang 3 in 8th and Lang 4 in 9th.
My child now  in 9th taking Lang 3, and that will be it. 
Spoke with UMD, they will allow it (kind of exception, but my child is bilingual anywhay). Child is planing to take different language in college and will go for Engineering, so we do not care that much about languages...
If you go for SLAC, you may need to take 2 years in HS. Other than that, one year in HS would be fine.[/quote]
