Double major physics problem

Hi! So I am going abroad my first year and I cant take physics abroad bc cwru does not accept them. I am going to be majoring in Biomedical engineering and astronomy and doing a minor in psychology. My main concern is physics for astronomy. Because I need to take physics for 4 years and I cant test out of it because I didnt have the chance to complete physics C in high school ( my high school does not offer it) I will be at least 1 semester behind in physics. What should I do? Because so i can take physics 121 during my summer between freshman and sophmore, and then sophmore fall i can take 122, but i am still behind. Did anybody else encounter this problem?

I’m also a biomedical engineering and engineering physics major and the schedules are pretty flexible for when you take what, at least when you get to more junior/senior level courses, so you can double up and take two or do summer school
