Is Latin considered a language in university?

I chose french for my GCSE, and we hav until monday to change or give in our slips. But since I wasnt to become a doctor, I know Latin will come in handy. But I am not sure if Universities consider Latin as a language. Can someone plz help quick!
I can only choose out of French and Latin. But thanks for the suggestions so far!

What is the best place to learn Latin?

Or where?

How do I go about finding someone to teach me Latin?
All doctors do it right? So do universities offer it...or do anyone else have any other ideas?
Thanks everyone.
