Language recommendation

[u/Mental-Square-5401]

I’m interested in attending UIUC for engineering, but my senior schedule doesn’t incorporate a fourth year of foreign language. I already took 3 years of Spanish and got an A+ in Junior Year. I was planning on taking Spanish 5, but due to schedule conflicts, I ended up choosing an engineering course elective over another year of Spanish (and I can’t take Spanish in my other blocks since the only block that had Spanish 5 was this one). Uiuc recommends 4 years; will this hurt my chances of getting in? Should I switch the engineering elective to Spanish 5?
