Universidad de Sevilla, C/ S. Fernando, 4, 41004 Sevilla, Spain
4.24 / 5 based on 438 reviews.
Description:
El embrión de la actual Universidad de Sevilla fue el Colegio de Santa María de Jesús, fundado por el Arcediano Maese Rodrigo Fernández de Santaella en las postrimerías del s. XV. Ya en el siglo XVI (1505), una bula del Papa Julio II otorga al Colegio la facultad de conferir grados en Teología, Filosofía, Derecho, Medicina y Artes; y en 1551 el propio Concejo de la ciudad traspasa a la fundación de Maese Rodrigo, la Real provisión que concedía un Estudio General, por lo que aquélla pasó a ser oficialmente la Universidad, gozando de todos los privilegios de las demás Universidades del Reino. De los Estatutos de 1621 se desprende que la Universidad de Sevilla se componía de cuatro Facultades: Teología, Canones y Leyes, Medicina y Artes, y otorgaba los grados de Bachiller, Licenciado y Doctor en todas las Facultades, junto con el de Maestro por la Facultad de Artes.

HOUSING

Personal assessment
Type of housing: With a family
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? I already speak spanish and im familiar with the spanish culture. Although i could come and go as i wished visitors were not allowed and i prefer to be able to cook for myself. Im jsut that kind of independant type person. I do recommend staying with a family if you really want to emerse yourself in the culture. Plus, being vegetarian my only choice was to choose a family over the dorms.
Personal comments:
For the most part housing was great. CIEE did a good job except for the fact they forgot to tell my host mom i was vegetarian and i had a very monotnous semester of the same types of food--mostly tomatoes, spinach, totilla española and rotten cheese.

Why? It is important to live with natives from the country in which you study. You need this invaluable experience which is actually superior to the classroom experience.
Personal comments:
My accomodations were ideal. A 20-minute walk from the university which required my passing through important sites of the host city and a host family that made my experience truely an enriching experience. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Why? I would definitely recommend staying with a host family for the first semester just to see what the culture is like but when/if i come back i will get an apartment just to have a little more independence.
Personal comments:
CCIS did a very good job of setting up all their students with good families. Ours was very nice and the mother cooked some amazing food. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Why? We are all here for the same thing; to get international experience. I live here with international students (Spanish, German and French student) and get to know different cultures. I really like it here and know you really notice the small differences between cultures and you learn how to adapt to strange situations.
Personal comments:
Unfortunately, the University of Sevilla does not arrange housing for international students. I really had to search a room/apartment for myself. This was tuff but through calling a lot and after two weeks I found a great room in a student apartment. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Why? If you are outgoing, get a an apartment. Its a great way to meet Spanish people as well as to avoid the trap of only associating with other foreigners.
Personal comments:
The Maese Rodrigo residence is located about 10km outside of Seville. It is a bit overpriced and isolated, but if you have transportation and want to be very studious you could be well served by it. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
