Foreign languages at university in the US

I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, but I've got the opportunity of going to university in North America. The thing is, I was planning on doing BA Modern Foreign Languages (French, Spanish and possibly Italian) or something like that here but I have no idea if there's even an equivalent stateside.

Does anyone know what sort of foreign language courses there are in the US, and if they're any good? (Sorry my knowledge of the US system is limited, I'm only just starting to research it)

What year are you in and what is this "opportunity" you're talking about?

I would say most universities offer a degree in the Romance languages. Liberal arts would also mean you study things outside of that, so make sure you'd be comfortable with maybe having to do some maths, science and English etc etc

Unless you're more specific about your situation there isn't much I can say in terms of advice. Which universities were you thinking of, what calibre, how are you going to fund it, etc etc etc?

Thanks so much for replying, I'm year 12 and I'm looking at every uni course there is right now to get an idea. I was just considering the US too since there's a program that runs that criteria I seem to fit they'll take you out to the US in the summer to look at either MIT,Harvard or Yale and offer support on applying and such. I hadn't really thought of US unis before and I'm just curious as to whether it'd be worth my while to try apply over there or to stick in the UK.

There's not too much fuss on location, but money might be a slight issue. I'm from a single parent family and I'm not sure how the actual fees and financial support work in terms of the US.

I'd be happy to do other subjects aswell, but would you be at a disadvantage considering you didn't take it alevel? I got on really well with everything gcse but took Spanish, French, English Lang and Lit so it's not exactly varied.
