Spain

The Department of Modern Languages is pleased to announce the online publication of Aquí y Allá (Here and There), a cultural journal that contains poems and short stories in Spanish, as well as photographs and other materials that reflect the experiences of St. Lawrence students who have participated on abroad programs in Spanish-speaking countries. Thestudents who produced this digital publication sponsored by funds from a Mellon Foundation grant worked under the guidance of Adjunct Instructor Esthela Calderón.

Off-campus study is an opportunity open to sophomore, junior and senior students with appropriate academic preparation, motivation, and interest in the relevant area.  Students in all major fields may participate in off-campus programs:  some programs have distinctive curricular strengths, but all are designed to enable students with a variety of interests to benefit from the experience of living and studying in a different cultural setting.

Students participating in the Spain program pay regular St. Lawrence University comprehensive fees. The comprehensive fee covers tuition, room and board with the homestay families, the orientation in Salamanca, and program-integrated field components.

If you receive financial aid, your normal financial aid is applied. Contact the Financial Aid Office if you would like information about additional loans for extra costs associated with studying on this program.

The fee does not cover:

The geographic focus of the program is Madrid, a city of four million, and the provinces of Segovia and Salamanca. Madrid has a dynamic cultural and social life. While modern and very active, it provides access to small towns and villages of more traditional appearance and customs. Within easy reach are the historical cities of Avila, Segovia, El Escorial and Toledo, and the Guadarrama mountains -- popular for skiing, hiking and other sports. Students often comment that "there isn't time to see and do everything in Spain."
