Study Abroad Programs in Madrid, Spain

Offering a culture that prioritizes afternoon naps, excellent gastronomy, and late night parties, Madrid unsurprisingly attracts many international students. But studying in Madrid is a lesson in more than savoring the leisurely Madrileño pace of life: the combination of an abundance of museums boasting the highest pedigree of art, the city’s two world-class futbol teams, and the traditional flamenco dancing (an art form in its own right), imbue the city with the frenetic, cultural energy that makes it so captivating for foreign students. Whether your Spanish game’s pro or you’re linguistically challenged, you’re welcome to study abroad in Madrid regardless.

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!

Would highly recommend

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.
