It was more than I could have ever expected and can't even be explained in words. I only feel extreme gratitude for being able to experience what I was able to experience in Spain and everywhere I was able to go. Danica M - Tulane University View Entire Review
I gained more confidence and became more out-going. Lauren E - Barnard College View Entire Review
It was absolutely worthwhile and had an amazing time, I just wish I had done a lot of things differently. Future students: do not let anything hold you back while you are there, you will regret it. Take advantage of everything!!! Amy T - Ithaca College View Entire Review
I have become a more focused, confident and active student because of it. I gained a better understanding on how to live my life, which is to say, I gained a more Spanish outlook on life, which is to follow what makes you happy, and if it isn't making you happy, leave it behind. I plan to move back to Granada at some point. Daniel B - Tulane University View Entire Review
I'll be returning in the summer. jacob b - Tulane University View Entire Review
Yes! I learned so much about the Spanish people and culture and my Spanish also improved to near fluency. I now want to return to work in Spain or a Latin American nation. Sarah L - Trinity University View Entire Review
The experience was definitely worthwhile and I really enjoyed it. It helped me become more independent and made me expand my understanding of the world. My Spanish has gotten a million times better and I had a wonderful time. Meera K - Rice University View Entire Review
About
Our curriculum takes full advantage of Andalusia and all southern Spain has to offer. The program offers two unique program options that are designed to improve your Spanish proficiency: the Intermediate Spanish Program and Advanced Spanish Program.
Students placed in the Intermediate Program take IES Abroad courses in both English and Spanish. The Advanced Program courses are conducted entirely in Spanish, including study at the Universidad de Granada. Both options introduce you to Spain’s Moorish heritage and Jewish past, and its continuing links to North Africa through Islamic and Contemporary North African Studies. Advanced students can also experience Arabic language courses of all levels, at the Universidad de Granada. You can also add
international work experience to your résumé while earning credit by participating in an internship
placement and accompanying academic seminar.
