A note about colleges…. When a college recommends "two or more" years of a language, they are clearly signaling that language study beyond two years would strengthen your application. Indeed, no matter where you apply for college, a demonstrated proficiency in a second language will strengthen your application. Life in college and after college is becoming increasingly globalized, so strength in a second language carries a lot of weight with admissions counselors.

Cont… In general, competitive colleges require at least two years of foreign language classes in high school. Stanford would like to see three or more years, and Harvard urges applicants to take four years. These classes should be in the same language -- colleges would much prefer to see proficiency in one language than a superficial smattering of several languages.

Furthermore… Knowing another language is applicable no matter your major! Especially in a highly competitive global economy. We are the only monolingual country in the world. Most countries produce bilingual or trilingual citizens. If you want to stand out in the job market, become highly proficient in another language. I HIGHLY recommend studying abroad in a Spanish speaking country to develop fluency
