Universidad de Salamanca (USAL)
Universidad de Salamanca, Patio de Escuelas 2, 37008 Salamanca, Spain
4.25 / 5 based on 516 reviews.
Description:
Since its founding in 1218, the University of Salamanca has had illustrious jurists, scientists, doctors and writers among its professors and students. In 1987 the construction of a new campus was undertaken to satisfy the growing needs of the University of Salamanca. This remarkable material growth that the University of Salamanca has undergone over the last ten years has been accompanied by an even more remarkable qualitative and quantitative growth, both in the number of students and teaching and administrative staff, on the one hand, and in the number of degrees and doctoral programs offered, university institutes and technological centres and services for the university community, on the other.

Universidad de Salamanca review by Bryndis
HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: With a family
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? I tried living with a spanish family and would like to try something else if i were to go back.
Personal comments:
I change families within a week from my arrival, the first family was "dissapointing", they were smokers and had pets - which i specifically asked not to have in the house. The second family was an elderly lady and her son - they were like my family, a family away from home. The lady and her son was very nice to me.
