Why study Spanish abroad?

"Especially for Spanish majors, an experience in a Spanish-speaking country is truly essential. Whether you go to Spain or to Latin America, you will be surrounded by local wit, warmth, energy, and of course, la lengua española (24 hours a day!). By going to Latin America or Spain, you will deepen your knowledge of the surrounding culture, and enjoy the youthful atmosphere of university settings abroad. From museums and architecture to music, cafes and pubs, studying abroad is an energizing adventure, and that eventually teaches you much more about YOUR OWN SELF than you ever imagined. To maximize your experience, don’t hesitate to go for extended stays: 6 months is better than 3, and a full year much better than six months. The reason is simple: language (and what comes with it) can’t be learned over night, and to truly acquire fluency, non-native speakers will need to stay a minimum of half a year.” Read more on this.
