Study Abroad | Valencia

This program is designed for students who wish to take Spanish language courses (Beginner through Advanced) with elective courses taught mostly in English from a variety of study fields including the humanities, health and natural sciences. Students take 4 courses each recommended for 3 U.S. credits. All students take a Spanish language course along with 3 additional elective courses. Electives can be chosen from among the courses designed specifically for the UCV-US study abroad program, direct enrollment courses (alongside Spanish and other international students) and internship placements. Students may take an additional course (for a maximum of 15 credits) for a supplemental fee of $945. Contact your AIFS Program Advisor for details. 

Spanish level is determined by an on-line placement test prior to arrival and also after arrival. An on-line meeting is held with each student, the Program Director and the UCV to better determine proper enrollment of courses and to ask questions.   

Students wishing to enroll in courses taught in Spanish should have an Advanced level (four or more semesters) of Spanish. Students should contact the AIFS Program Advisor as early as possible for course availability and schedules. 

The UCV-US Program offers internship positions in areas of health, education, and social justice. Students earn a minimum of 3 credits during the internship through their academic department. Internships are generally unpaid, full-time or part-time work assignments. Specific placements cannot be guaranteed but the UCV-US Program seeks to accommodate every qualified student with an appropriate internship. 

Applicants should note competition for most internships is extremely fierce, so if you are considering applying for one, be sure to submit a thorough application that illustrates your qualifications and commitment. 

You will need to provide your academic transcript, résumé, cover letter and, if necessary, an FBI background check. A letter of recommendation is optional. 

Internships are available in English and Spanish. Some internships in Spanish will require an Advanced level of proficiency. 

This is a competitive program with limited placement and we recommend that you apply early. Some internships may require an additional fee. For further information on the application process please contact the AIFS Program Advisor. 

UCV is an urban campus and most faculties are located within a few minutes’ walk of each other. Please note that the Sports campus is approximately a half hour journey from the center by Metro.
