I took all these courses as a non physics aligned computer science major in a top engineering program. I even had the theoretical probability and statistics requirements you need too. The fact was though that are base requirements meant if you came in without placing out of basic requirements like calculus 1, intro physics, etc, you were going to be there for six years or five years plus summers. This wasn’t technically allowed by they waved hands somehow and it was tolerated by the university system. I feel I had enough background to study a year of progressive quantum computing courses successfully (but didn’t as they weren’t available). Of course in the last decade or so they relaxed a lot of non computer science requirements and offered more elective slots, dumbing down the requirements and offering greater specialization for industry. But my point is, you certainly can offer a quantum computing degree with sufficient depth in an American university. It’ll just be a hard degree.
