The program abroad in Valencia, Spain, was established in 1975 to offer the opportunity of further study to American students interested in the language and culture of Spain. While abroad, students gain proficiency in the language and grow from the multicultural experience of living and studying in a foreign country. All courses are taught in Spanish by highly qualified professors. All classes are conducted according to the American educational style. The classes are small so the professors are able to direct students' learning more effectively, both inside and outside of the classroom.
Students live with host families throughout the city.
Most financial assistance is also applicable to the Valencia Program. Valencia is a beautiful Mediterranean city located on the east coast of Spain, across from the Balearic Islands, with a warm climate throughout the year.
