I wish I had known what an incredible program I would be attending and what a life-altering experience it would be for me. I would have alloted an entire year to spend in Madrid.

Personal recommendation
Marquette's program covers everything. The academic aspect is great- being in a very prestigious Spanish university with TONS of opportunities to use all of their facilities. Marquette does both day and overnight trips for the group, provides a wonderful group advisor who helps out in any situation. The homestay was wonderful. I couldn't have asked for more. While other students I know saw their trip simply as a few months of partying, mine was a chance to change my entire way of life. I HIGHLY recommend Marquette in Madrid through the Universidad Complutense.

if you want this experience to be the best time of your life - just let everything happen, don't expect or plan too much right from the beginning and - most important - spend time with local students as much as possible!!! you should be especially open to cultural differences in order to be able to really dive into madrid's life (some things work a lot more slowly in spain as you might be used to for example). i only travelled around madrid (to toledo for example) and to barcelona - travelling through spain is amazing, but i preferred staying in madrid with my friends there because 5 months isn't such a long time.

I wish I had known...
The program I went through seemed to be vague on a variety of details regarding the specifics of studying abroad. It took much effort, for example, to find out what kinds of credit I would be able to transfer to my home university.

I would recommend one attend classes all on one campus, and preferably at the main campus, which is more accessible by metro and has a more aesthetically pleasing landscape.

that at times it will be difficult to study with all the opportunities to go out / travel. make sure that you really know your goals before going and then have a lot of fun and stick to them.

Overall
Estudié licenciatura en traducción e interpretación en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
Buenos profesores, buenos profesionales, buena preparación y posibilidades de especializarse en diferentes campos. Ofertan cada vez más lenguas C.
Te preparan bien para trabajos internacionales y con idiomas, no necesariamente traducción o interpretación, aunque por supuesto tú tienes que hacer de tu parte...

“Buen acceso a recursos para el estudiante”

Overall
La UCM dispone de buenos recursos para el alumnado, tanto para que realice sus estudios como para actividades extracurriculares. El campus está ubicado en Madrid en las inmediaciones de la Moncloa, en una área que cuenta con buena comunicación. Valoro mucho la formación enciclopédica que brinda a sus estudiantes. El profesorado en general bien, con algunas excepciones.
