Foreign exchange student in spain?

Foreign exchange student in spain?
Hi, I am interested in doing the foreign exchange student thing and going to Spain, mainly because I am taking Spanish. Right now I'm a sophomore and would ideally like to go my senior year. So if you have ever been a foreign exchange student or are one currently, do you like it? Was it worth your time & money? What organization did you go through? Did you go for the entire year or just a semester? Do you like your host family? I have so many questions! Please share your experience! Thanks in advance!

Dear Friend I suggest to you that you are not going to any foreign student consulting firm for study in Spain. if you are going there then you will be lost money and time after that you will be mentally upset. first you will be go to beside of you country of Spanish Embassy and you will be collect requirement papers for study of Spain and then you will be search of Google name of university and college list. here you will be find everything like tuition fee, accommodation, and about scholarship. try yourself

Buenos Dias! Being an exchange student can be an amazing experience! I am a 5-time host mom and new volunteer with YFU - Youth For Understanding - one of many high school exchange agencies. You didn't mention if you have chosen a specific agency yet. If you have chosen an agency, the admissions counselor and/or website for your agency should be able to help you. If you haven't, my biggest piece of advice is to go with an agency that is listed with the Council for Standards on International Exchange Travel (csiet.org). They regularly audit agencies to help insure quality. Sorry for my bias, but all I can really talk about is YFU, although other agencies are good too. When I've asked exchange students (both ones that came to the USA and those from the USA) why they chose YFU, they basically told me that YFU gave them more bang for their buck. The YFU website has a wealth of information (yfu-usa.org). The prices for next year aren't up yet, but in the past summer programs could cost $2000 to $6000, depending on the country and program (some programs pay the host families). With YFU, in a typical year, a total of 500 students go on exchange (summer, semester, and academic year) and 300 have partial or full scholarships. The scholarship application dates for next year haven't been posted yet, but are between October and January. With YFU, you can apply for a scholarship before paying the full program application fee. The application process involves filling out paperwork, getting recommendations from your school, and participating in an interview. Most of this can be done online and over the phone. You can also print out the paperwork and mail/fax it in. Typically you have to have a 2.0 (on 4.0 scale) for summer programs. Some scholarships require higher GPA's. The process is pretty easy. The admissions counselors will answer all of your questions. I hope this help. Buena suerte!

If you're really serious about immersing yourself in Spanish culture and improving your Spanish language ability, I recommend The Center for Cross-Cultural Study's summer program in Seville. Their staff is incredibly supportive and knowledgeable, the Center is in the heart of the city, and you get to live with a sevillano host family! For a summer term in Seville (they have two terms, one in June and one in July), it would cost $3438. You also have the option to participate in both summer terms, which would come to $6478. This cost includes full room & board, tuition, study visits, health insurance, and more! CC-CS has an online application which makes the whole process quite easy. There are several steps you have to go through, but most of it can be done either online or through email. Once your application is complete, you usually get an admissions decision within 2 weeks. For more information about this program, visit www.spanishstudies.org/sevillesummer. Having visited there myself, I know it is a wonderful place to study, and a lot of fun too!
