Eligibility: Students must be 18 years or older and have a GPA of at least 2.75 (out of 4.0).  No previous knowledge of the Spanish language is required.

Pre-Departure Information: Before students embark, they will be provided a pre-departure guide that includes important details about their program abroad.  In addition, students may contact World Endeavors any time prior to departure with questions.

Back_topHousing:

Participants will stay with local Spanish host families.  Host families are very welcoming and enjoy having foreign students stay with them.  All host family accommodation includes 3 meals per day and laundry.  Living in a host family setting is the best way to practice your Spanish outside of the classroom, and participants frequently make friendships that can last a lifetime.

Back_topAcademics:

The course is focused on Spanish language development in the following areas:

  • Spanish Grammar and Practice
  • Comprehension and Writing
  • Comprehension and Oral Expression

Students who successfully complete the course will receive an academic transcript for 3 credits from Pablo de Olavide University, a fully-accredited Spanish institution.  It is the student's responsibility to contact their academic advisor prior to the program to determine how the courses taken while abroad will transfer to their home institution.

Activities:

Every Friday students will have the opportunity to participate in course-related cultural activities.  Activities vary from year to year, but examples of past activities include:

Guided tour of the city center and Barrio Santa Cruz
