Barcelona Semester

September 24, 2024by: Molly Gosling - United StatesProgram: Semester in Barcelona - Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona

I can not recommend Barclonea enough! There is so much to do in the city from the beach, to eating tapas, to walking around the gothic quarter and shopping. It is so nice to be somewhere where the culture is relaxed and people take time to be in the moment. I loved reading a book on the subway and you could get everywhere with public transportation! CIS being a smaller program than most others was a great way to meet people!

The Best Experience of My Life

As a girl who grew up in a small town but with a large sense of adventure, studying abroad was something I always knew I wanted to do. However, I could never have imagined how fulfilling the experience would actually be. This past summer, in 2024, I made the decision to study abroad in Barcelona, Spain, at the University Autònoma de Barcelona. The cultures I experienced, the friends I made, and the memories I created are all things I could never have achieved if I hadn't taken the risk to study abroad. While the idea of studying abroad can be nerve-wracking, it has truly changed my outlook on life. I now hold knowledge and perspectives that have broadened my understanding of the world and enriched my personal and academic journey.

Best experience of my life!

If you are thinking about doing a study abroad program, make CISabroad your top pick! This was my first time living in a country other than the United States, and CIS made the transition easier than I could have ever imagined! The Barcelona onsite staff were always available to help or give advice, and they really made me feel at home. Not only this, but CIS also placed me in a centrally located and safe area of Barcelona which allowed me to really explore the city and acclimate to the culture. Overall, this was the most amazing experience ever and I made lifelong friendships and grew as a person. I owe it all to CISabroad!
