If you want to learn spanish.. meet spanish people and talk in spanish constantly. Take as many spanish courses while you are here and immerse yourself in the culture.

Course recommendations
If you have a semester to take electives.. do do study abroad. This school is great for only semester. It is very lax... which enables you to travel alot.

While you are studying in Spain... there are endless options every night of the week. O'Connells, Casa de Cerveza, Honky Tonk are some of my favorites. Bring alot of money.. especially if you are going to the Malaga trip. Be ready to have a blast.. and if you are in Malaga at the end of August go to La Ferria... HAVE A BLAST!!!

Housing
Type of housing: Flora Residence
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: With a family
Why?
I loved the location of the residence and all the people I lived with. Though we had strict rules.. it was still an amazing experience. If I were to stay an extra semester I would choose a family because I would be speaking more spanish.
