Most of the universities I've checked into lately still require the
equivalent of 2 years at high school level, or one year in college, as =
part
of their "breadth" requirements. However, I haven't seen many that =
require
four years of high school foreign language - that would be difficult for =
too
many students to attain and still take all the other classes you are
expected to have!
