Salamanca, with its 200,000 inhabitants,
is large enough to offer the advantages of a real
city but also keep the intimacy of a village. Home
to one of the oldest universities in Europe, Salamanca
remains a university city. As you roam through the
streets, you can appreciate the many architectural
styles which took root in Salamanca. Study Spanish
in the heart of the historic city center, near the
University of Salamanca and the famous, lively Plaza
Mayor, known as the living room of the Salamantinos.
Salamanca, nestled among mountains and lakes, is 2 hours
from Madrid and 30 minutes from Portugal. Your classes
take place in a restored 16th century monastery with
a beautiful courtyard.
Our partner school is situated in
a historical building, five minutes walk from the
Plaza Mayor. It is equipped with the latest technology,
twenty air-conditioned classrooms, a video and conference
room, library and an information room with free internet
access. There is also a spacious enclosed patio with
a typical Castilian well where you can relax with
a coffee and chat to friends during the breaks.

What People are Saying
“The host family was great! Everybody
at the school is really sweet. I went to the sports club,
and aerobics was great! Salamanca is beautiful.”
Geeta, USA
“I just got back from my 16 week
eduVacation in Salamanca. I had a great time and can’t
imagine going to a better place. I enjoyed my host family
tremendously. The classes were well taught. I also enjoyed
meeting people and making friends from all over the world;
it was definitely better than if I had gone to a school
in Spain with a group of Americans. Thank you so much
for this wonderful opportunity.” Tiffany, USA
