I would really like to learn Japanese, however, and I definitely will be willing to put considerable time into doing so. My question is, how difficult will it be for me to start learning Japanese? Is it advisable to study it if I have no background?
Also, another thing that I'm worried about is that I have a lot of trouble pronouncing Japanese "R"s. Is it acceptable to replace an "L" sound with a Japanese R? Is it very noticeable if I do this?
Thank you!

Don't major in two languages. If you want to double major then just take one language and one other major you can apply it to like business. Trust me, this will be better for you after you graduate and look for a job. You could always learn Japanese on the side and pass the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test).
