Int'l Business w/ 3 foreign languages Possible?

Hi, I have a question for anyone who is willing to spare me a moment of their time:

I am going to be a senior in high school next year and was wondering if it is possible to take on an international business major and study three foreign languages as well. I will be at a relatively advanced level in spanish and german (I will have completed spanish 4 and german 5 at my high school), so I will not need to take basic language courses in them. However, I will not be quite as adavanced in Russian. I will have completed some beginners courses in Russian at Creighton University (through beginning russian II) through their "Next Step" program.

I am wondering if it is possible to study international business and become proficient in these three languages at the same time (four years).
If this is possible, should I make one language a major (to double-major with int'l business) and the other two minors, or would this be too much/impossible?

Any imput you can give would be much appreciated.

considering you have completed spanish 4 and german 5 you must be almost fluent in those languages. At creighton you would probably start at a 300 level spanish and german class and be proficient in both languages within 1 or 2 years. That leaves russian. That would probably take 3 or 4 years of class to become proficient in. Having a business major, a language major, and two other language minors would not be impossible. It would be difficult but not impossible.
