A student studying abroad with Spanish Studies Abroad: San Juan - Semester, Year or Summer in Puerto Rico
I learned that we have to appreciate everything we have in life. I also learned that we need to respect and admire other people's decisions and thoughts on life in general. It's very worthwhile! - Saint Mary's College, Indiana View Entire Review

About

As a study abroad student in Puerto Rico you will see beyond the white sand beaches and tourist attractions. Student life, coursework and local activities will quickly encourage you to become fully immersed in the language and culture of the Caribbean island lifestyle and heritage.   

Known today as “La Ciudad Amurallada” (the walled city), San Juan is one of the biggest natural harbors in the Caribbean and the oldest city in United States territory. It is also the one of the largest capitals in the Caribbean, with a population of around 2.73 million people. Old San Juan holds many of the government buildings and is characterized by its seventeenth and eighteenth century colonial style which echoes its Spanish ancestry.
