Program Overview
Setting Description:
Participants are given the opportunity to live with host families and to experience Spanish culture first-hand. This is the perfect way to learn about Spanish families, customs, and cuisine. It is also a great way to practice and improve your Spanish skills. The host families provide a room and three meals a day, along with a variety of other services, including laundry. The Program Assistant in Madrid makes all the arrangements for your homestay. Students also have the option of making their own housing arrangements in local apartments in Madrid. UAlbany can help by explaining the general process, but we are not able to get involved in the search, rental decision, or contract process for the accommodations. You are fully responsible for making the final arrangements if you choose to find your own housing rather than live with a pre-arranged host family. Please see our website for more details.
