If you took one year of high school foreign language what will be required to take in college?

The college requirements for foreign language after taking one year in high school vary widely depending on the college, the major, and sometimes even the specific program within a major.

There's no universal answer. Some colleges:

* May require no further foreign language. This is especially true for students who didn't intend to pursue a language-related major or field.

* May require a certain number of semesters/credits. This might be two, three, or even four semesters, regardless of your high school experience. They might grant you some credit for your high school year, possibly placing you into a more advanced level.

* May have major-specific requirements. Certain majors, particularly those in the humanities, social sciences, or even some STEM fields, may mandate several semesters of a foreign language, even if you've already taken one year in high school. This often reflects the need for cultural understanding or the use of foreign-language sources for research.

To find out the specific foreign language requirements for a particular college, you must check the college's website. Look for sections on "Admissions Requirements," "Undergraduate Catalog," or "Departmental Requirements" (if you know your intended major). Contact the admissions office directly if you can't find the information online.
