Trouble with Foreign Language Requirements

So anyway, i found out not that long ago, that you NEED 2 years of language to apply to most universities. Now as an International student, I had no way of knowing this 3 years ago, when I didn’t care about college.

Do colleges usually let internationals off the hook for this requirement? Will 17 years of constant immersion in an ESL environment count as a foreign language requirement? Does anyone have any experiences with this sort of thing?

I hope this doesn’t matter too much, because I would hate to let all my hard work in school all go down the drain, just because I didn’t do 2 years of the same language.:(
