USAC Spain: Madrid - Spanish Language, Art & Spanish Studies

I had such an amazing time! I’m actually going back to live in Madrid for 10 months because I enjoyed my time there so much! That staff was amazing and most of the teachers I had were very kind! I would definitely recommend!

I met so many amazing people while I was in Madrid and had experiences and connections that I will spend the rest of my life reminiscing on. I hope I can be so lucky to do something so beautiful again! I got the opportunity to see Morocco, which completely changed my life, I went on short beach trips, made lifelong friends, experienced the culture, learned a ton of Spanish, and experienced freedom and independence for the first time in my life. I will be forever indebted the universe for allowing me to have experienced something so pure and beautiful and I will never be the same. Part of the reason this was possible is because the program, specifically Sara and Gabriela did a fantastic job making sure logistics were taken care of so all we had to worry about was settling in and having a wonderful experience.

Sara and Gabriela (the program instructors) were incredible and made my experience exponentially more safe and fulfilling. The professors were great and my Spanish improved significantly! I felt challenged by my coursework without missing out on experiencing the city. I made friends in the program and enjoyed the day trips with the group. I really liked my shared apartment and got very lucky with its location. I'm so glad I chose USAc because their on the ground support felt very secure while I was abroad.
