Intensive Spanish Language Program

Academics

This Spanish language program in Spain is appropriate for Spanish learners of all levels.  Upon accpetance to the program students will take a placement test and then take classes in the level of their current ability.  Students in this program come from all over the world and speak various native languages.  For this reason, all classes are taught in Spanish only.  Students will take various classes such as Spanish Language, the history of Spain, Spanish culture past and present, Spanish literature and European politics.  Students will recieve credits beyond just language credits in this program.

Students can choose to participate in the program for a full academic year or just the Spring semester.  Living immersed in the language and culture makes it easy to really learn the language.  The classroom is important, but students in this program find that what they learn outside the classroom is equally as beneficial.  Many participants of this program go on to work in bilingual careers.

Location and Housing

Valencia is a thriving European city where students are provided with housing within walking distance from the university.  Students live in furnished apartments and will have one or more flatmates, although students will have their own rooms.  Generally students have flatmates from countries other than their own so they are encouraged to speak Spanish in order to communicate.  All students will share their apartment with flatmates of the same gender.
