Being in Valencia allowed me to finish my minor within a short amount of time Past Review

Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc.

The academic aspect was amazing. It allowed me to finish my minor within a short amount of time. Plus, I feel as if I learned so much more taking the classes in a country that spoke the language versus sitting in a classroom in America and learning the information because I was able to immediately apply what I learned to my surroundings.

On-site administration of your program

There were a couple of things that were unorganized once we were in Spain that caused the students some confusion, but overall it wa very organized and very well put together.

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements?

I lived with all spanish-speaking students upon request and it was absolutely amazing. It was somewhat difficult at times because I had to communicate only in Spanish, but overall, amazing. <br /><br /> Very good.

The meals were a mix between cafeteria food and local food. Some of it was interestng and some of it was very good.

How integrated did you feel with the local culture?

There were very good and there was a good balance between academic time and social time.

How well were health issues addressed during the program?

Nobody really god sick or injured, so student health issues were not really addressed. I felt very safe throughout the entire program though.

(1 = not very easy/$200+ on food & personal expenses/week, 2.5 = $100/week, 5 = very easily/minimal cost)

Living in a spanish-speaking country helped my spanish speaking skills improve greatly. I am so pleased with the results of the program.
