High School Student Exchange Programs Abroad

Spend a semester abroad in Barcelona, taking English classes in a city where Mediterranean sunshine meets daring architecture and vibrant street life. Think Gaudí’s colorful curves at Park Güell, the sound of guitars drifting through plazas, and palm trees swaying beside the sea. From golden beaches to mountain views, Barcelona blends coastal calm with a bold, creative spirit. Join a welcoming host family, form close friendships with your cohort, and immerse yourself in Catalan culture. From tapas nights in El Born to afternoons at Barceloneta Beach, every day brings something new. Take guided excursions to Tarragona’s Roman amphitheater by the sea and the awe-inspiring Sagrada Família, Gaudí’s unfinished masterpiece. Your semester promises fun adventures, lifelong friends, and a future shaped by global experiences.
