Before coming to Madrid I already attended an intense spanish study in Costa Rica the summer before. Everyone at the university spoke english.. there were people there that spoke other languages, but I was rather disappointed that more spanish wasn't spoken around me. Likewise, there were mostly American students at the university that tended to stick together b/c of the unfamiliar surroundings. Likewise my roommates were American as well and we spoke mostly English in our apt. However, i feel that my roommates and I were challenged everyday- ordering pizza on the phone, grocery shopping (the products are different and in (spanish:) talking with our maid, going out for Tapas. I think living in the apt got us out in the community more -speaking spn- and the students who lived with families got most of their practice at home

Coming from GW, i felt that the courses were not up to college level. I felt like i was taking a bunch of high school courses again. But it was nice for the sample fact that, it made it easier to experience Madrid and the rest of spain, cause we had a lot of free time.

They only give a midterm and a final exam, and i don't believe that is a good system. There is no way to see how u are progressing through the courses, and half way through the semester is too late to fix problems.

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.

If you stay in an apartment, they give you an allowence that really helps out. Also grocery shop-it can be an experience in itself.

Dépenses habituelles

I spent less on food than at home because I had a meal plan that was pre-paid. Also in Spain you can get a soup/salad, dinner/lunch, and dessert for $7 US. (menu del dia!) as far as more $ on telephone, I was making international phone calls, where I didn't have to in the US. I also travled a lot more than I do in the States. The nightlife is more or less the same prices if not a little cheaper (depending on where you go out) in Madrid than in Boston.

Commentaire personnel

There were no big suprises. Just set your-self on a weekly budget and stick with it if you don't have a lot of extra cash. We had an excellent exchange rate when we were there, so my money went quite a bit further in Spain than it does in the U.S. if anything I spent a little less than I thought I was going to.
