Getting Up to Speed in SpanishThe Need for Spanish Courses
For many years, some universities in Spain accepted French students with little or no Spanish.
Many thought it was a "gift" from the universities. In reality, they hadn't imagined that a student, having been given this opportunity, wouldn't take the necessary steps to prepare in Spanish before the start of the new school year.
Nowadays, Spanish universities anticipate and demand that students speak Spanish, and in most cases check applicants' level of proficiency before admitting them.
Studying in Spain also means making a commitment to learning the language.
Spanish is much more than a means of communication: it's the key to successfully completing your studies in Spain and fully integrating into your new environment.
Financing your projectHow can you finance your studies in Spain?
You've probably heard that it's hard to get into public universities in Spain, especially for courses that are in high demand among good and very good students. Why is that? Because of the limited number of places available.
Selection is made via the nota de corte, a system that ranks candidates according to their academic results. Places are allocated to the best profiles until the quota is reached.
You can't know in advance whether you'll be among the best candidates, and if you're going to study at a private university in Spain, you'll need to plan to finance your studies.
It's important to know that there is no really significant financial aid available to support this type of project. Being well prepared means anticipating this aspect from the outset.
