Is it realistic for a college student to learn to speak Arabic or Hebrew reasonably well?

I speak English fluently as a native speaker and know some Spanish (studying and developing my fluency in it), but in college I want to try and learn a Middle Eastern language such as Farsi or Hebrew or Arabic. I know I’ll never learn to speak it fluently, or understand it in the way a native would, but is it reasonable to learn to be able to communicate and understand the language effectively?
