I learned so much about myself and and so many life lessons that have made me grown up. I feel so much more independent and confident for the future. It was worth all the stress of being lost and managing school plus travelling plus finances. Jamie S - University of Dayton View Entire Review
I learned so much from this trip, especially about myself and the world around me. Every second was worth it. Kevin H - Colorado State University View Entire Review
Couldn't imagine my life without this incredible experience. I learned so much about another culture, as well as myself. I got to see and do things I had been dreaming about for years. I will certainly be back to Barcelona many times in the future. Ben P - Washington State University View Entire Review
Definitely an extremely worthwhile experience. I learned so much about myself and the world and had the opportunity to do so many cool things Ashley T - Indiana University of Pennsylvania / IUP View Entire Review
I have learned many things from this experience, it is hard to explain them all. I think most importantly, other than the cultural aspects of Spain and general knowledge about traveling, I learned a lot about myself as a person and what I am looking for further down the line in my life. Being abroad teaches you lessons that you ... Bailey L - St. Cloud State University View Entire Review
I was able to try so many new experiences and see so many new places. I definitely have a much greater respect for different cultures and see the world in a completely different way. 100% worthwhile experience and I wish I wasn't graduating so I could study abroad again! Ashley T - Indiana University of Pennsylvania / IUP View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself - how I handle new situations, that I can survive very well on my own in a foreign land, and that people can be wonderful even if they don't speak your language or know your culture. Michael C - Indiana University of Pennsylvania / IUP View Entire Review
I learned so much about the Spanish culture and way of life! Visiting a foreign country for a couple weeks is great, but actually living in and adjusting to the culture for an extended period of time is absolutely life-changing and definitely worth every second!

About
SAI invites students to experience Barcelona's vibrant diversity.
SAI’s partner school, the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), is a dynamic institution with an excellent reputation in Spain and globally. With its roots in the Catalan tradition, UAB offers a unique opportunity for study abroad students to enroll in English-taught courses in the heart of Barcelona. The hub of the study abroad program is at the Sant Pau campus, a stunning display of Catalan Modernist architecture situated in downtown Barcelona.
In addition to supporting students throughout their stay in Barcelona, SAI also coordinates a range of activities and excursions throughout the term, including a weekend trip to Seville, cooking classes, a Flamenco dance demonstration, a Barcelona scavenger hunt, and many others. Students also have access to SAI’s network of partner organizations, allowing them to take part in volunteer activities, as well as language exchange opportunities with local students and families.
SAI students at UAB join a vibrant community of visiting scholars. The majority of study abroad students attending this program at UAB are North Americans, bringing with them a wealth of curiosity about Spain and the local Catalan culture. Students benefit from the cultural richness of Barcelona, attending local events and activities organized by SAI and exploring the city independently. Students quickly find that Barcelona offers endless marvels, from strolling down the Passeig de Gràcia, to enjoying the view from Park Güell, to marveling at the organic architectural shapes of the Sagrada Familia, Antoni Gaudi’s unfinished masterpiece.
SAI students in Barcelona experience the overlapping cultural currents which flow through Barcelona; from its origins as an ancient Mediterranean settlement, to its unique status as the modern capital of Catalonia.
