AlisonStudy in Italy
“I had an experience of a lifetime studying abroad in Milan, Italy. I took a Media Industry course at Università Cattolica and got a tour of Sky Productions headquarters. Each day was filled with an adventure and I got to see a lot of Italian culture. I met great people along the way and had the best pasta and pizza. On the weekends I traveled to Portofino and Bellagio. My favorite part about Italy was the food and all the beautiful places there are to explore. I am so happy I made the decision to study abroad! I had a good application process. My advisor was sweet and very helpful. The team replied in a timely manner.”

For studying in Spain, language requirements depend on the program, with many universities offering courses in English. However, learning basic Spanish is highly beneficial for daily life and cultural immersion, even if your program is taught in English.
Studying abroad in Spain involves tuition fees, which vary depending on the institution and program. Daily expenses, such as food, transportation, and study materials, can also vary depending on the city, but are generally average. Additional costs may include visa fees and optional spending on cultural activities, travel, and leisure experiences.
To make friends and build a social life while studying in Spain, participate in university clubs, events, and activities where you can meet both local and international students. Engage with the culture by attending festivals, trying local foods, and exploring shared interests with others. Learning some Spanish can also help you connect more easily and show locals that you’re making an effort to embrace their culture.
While studying in Spain, be aware that social interactions are warm and expressive, with greetings often involving a handshake or two cheek kisses among friends. Meal times run longer and are later than in many other countries, with lunch as the main meal and dinner typically served after 8 PM. Additionally, punctuality is more relaxed in social settings, but being on time for academic and professional commitments is still important.
