Somewhat unrelated, but I am very interested in studying Portuguese (or possibly Romanian since my Dad speaks R) in college. This would obviously be a vote towards Middlebury and Dartmouth since Bowdoin does not offer Portuguese, I believe. Is there a way I can display this unique interest to an admission committee? I looked into summer programs, but other than programs in Brasil/Portugal (pricey + my Portuguese isn’t very advanced) I found a program at Middlebury for high schoolers. The problem is that the program is crazy expensive, and way more than I can spend on a program like that ($9,500+ for seven weeks). Otherwise I can’t think of anything, or just anything plausible in general.
