Description

Salamanca was the first program site where the initial group of ISA students studied abroad in 1987. Salamanca (160,000) is described by many as the ideal study abroad location because of the outstanding academic possibilities, assorted cultural opportunities and proximity to Madrid. Students of all levels will find opportunities to improve their Spanish language skills at the oldest and most prestigious university in Spain, the University of Salamanca.

Conveniently located adjacent to the university, ISA's Salamanca office offers students computer usage for school work and e-mail, travel tips and books, community volunteer information, tutoring services, details about upcoming excursions, and the opportunity to practice Spanish with the ISA staff. ISA alumni consistently comment that their study abroad experiences were positively accented by the ISA staff and the format of the ISA program in Salamanca.
