Don't worry about it. The first programming class you take isn't about the language. When I did my degree, we learned in Pascal, then were required to learn C, C++, etc. on our own for more advanced classes. Your first class is about concepts, algorithms, abstract data types, etc. You'll learn the basics then be able to apply them to a lot of other languages that you can easily pick up quickly on your own.
