English student studying abroad in Spain?
English student studying abroad in Spain?
I've nearly completed my A Levels (I will have an AS in Enlish Language and A Levels in Art and Textiles when i am done). I want to study in Spain furthering my art, probably fashion or fine art direction. (I am going there next summer to take an intensive Spanish course although the places i have looked at teach in English but hey, immerse oneself right!) Been looking at sites and there seems to be quite a few good universities mentioning taking international students but i cant find any information about how much the fees would be. If anyone has studied in Spain (especially art type courses) then could you give me a rough idea of the tuition costs, entry requirements etc and also how did you find the experience? Thank you :)

Hello! A great school to learn Spanish is Don Quijote, they have branches in the most important cities. I can recommend you Salamanca. It's not far from Madrid - good for flight connections and it's one of the best in Spain. Apart from learning the language you will enjoy the experience as it is a very cosmopolitan city but at the same time not too big so it's very manageable. There are lots of cultural events going on all year long and hey! great for socialising :) Trust me, great place to go! Been there and done it all :) Best of luck!

I wasn't taking art courses in Spain, but i was there for a semester in college. As Sue Queen said, Salamanca is a great city for a student studying in Spain. That's where I was. I took courses taught in Spanish at the University of Salamanca. Being somewhat centrally located, you can get almost anywhere in the country in a reasonable amount of time by train. I went through a program called the Institute of European Studies (IES). Have fun!
