<p>If you’re applying to selective colleges and universities, and your high school offers more than two years of a language, then probably two years is not enough.</p>
<p>On the other hand, if your high school offers only two years of foreign language, then few colleges, if any, will penalize you for that. (Also, if your high school offers only two years of foreign language, shame on them!) If your high school offers, let’s say, two years of German and four years of Spanish, then you’d be well advised to take Spanish–at least through Spanish III–if it’s not too late.</p>
