Foreign Language Online

I want to major in a foreign language, possibly french or russian and eventually become a translator and work for the government or work for a company overseas… i’ve been looking at Middlebury, George Washington , American and McGill… which one is best? Any other colleges out there too?

I love to learn foreign languages,i’m a high school student and want to enter a university which can learn foreign languages but because of my worse maths,so it is hard to enter.my dream is to learn 4 foreign languages at least(i hope i could chat with all people from all over the world wherever the people belong ) i want to be a translator in future, whatever and whenever i read a book i always want to translate it into English, what should i do?

And I love it, but I’ve been reading a lot of posts on here and noticed that it’s very difficult to get steady, well paid work as a translator(unless you work at the UN , which very selective) .

I also noticed that by majoring in Finance, Business, Medicine, Technology or anything else not Lib. Arts related better opportunities will arise.

So my question is this, if I’m interested in Foreign languages, is it a good choice to attempt to kill two birds with one stone and minor in FL, but then major in one of the above non-LA choices? Thanks!

I’m a busy mom with a toddler with special needs who needs my constant attention.I already know english and spanish but I dont have a bachelor degree.I would like to learn and get a bachelor degree in a third language.I would like to work from home.
I live in the U.S.

I want to have a career that has something to do with foreign languages, even though I am only in French 1. I don’t know if I want to be a translator because of the low salary, but what other careers are out there that utilize languages? Thank you in advance!

(other than english and spanish)
Could you explain why?Which one is more profitable.I need to make a living out of it.
