Overview
CASA Granada offers you the opportunity to study in Spain with any level of Spanish language proficiency, from beginner to bilingual, and with any academic major or future career path in mind. Your exact level of Spanish, and your specific learning goals for the semester, can be accommodated by one of our five distinct academic programs, ranging from an intensive language program to a direct enrolment program at the University of Granada’s prestigious School of Translation and Interpreting, with intermediate and hybrid programs in between.
Nestled at the base of the Sierra Nevada, the city's beauty – both natural and monumental – its manageable size, and its welcoming atmosphere provide the perfect environment for language immersion and personal growth. A relatively small city with a large university community, Granada offers you an Andalusian “college town” experience where you can connect with students from across Spain, and far beyond thanks to the University of Granada’s reputation as a favorite destination among European study abroad students. In addition, Granada’s proximity to Morocco creates the perfect setting to practice another foreign language, like Arabic or French, and to explore the city’s Islamic past and present.
Through our intentional and innovative programming, you will be encouraged to engage with the local community in meaningful and collaborative ways, and to reflect on your role as a global citizen.
