Malaga For the Win

by: Alexandra Farmer - United StatesProgram: ISA Study Abroad in Malaga, Spain

I could not be more thankful for my 4 weeks spent in Malaga Spain. Malaga is a very calm and beach city, my student residencia was located directly in the city center around many shops and restaurants. As a Black girl from Maryland I was weary of study abroad, as i’ve never been a minority in my community—Malaga was immensely welcoming and fun. I settled on Malaga because I wanted to be near the beach, and I am very happy I did. The center of the University where I took my classes was right on t...

An Experience of a Lifetime!

Studying in Malaga was truly an unforgettable experience. In the 'Summer 1' program I met extraordinary people and visited the most beautiful places in Spain. Malaga is a beautiful city. The city center offers amazing food, shopping, social life, and more. Additionally, outside the city center, the rest of Malaga is beautiful. Near UMA, El Palo beach was the best. My professor was amazing! Overall, I think this program was 100% worth it in every aspect, and I HIGHLY recommend taking up this oppo...

I initially chose International Studies Abroad over other study abroad programs simply because of their fantastic staff. I casually walked into a study abroad fair at my university and was completely drawn in by their representative. She answered all of my questions, was patient with helping me find what I was looking for, and most importantly, she was very genuine and honest. Till this day, all of the ISA staff have been more than helpful, reassuring, positive, and comforting, even under the most stressful circumstances. They are truly amazing!

I chose ISA largely because of talking with the Rep at my school. I was wandering around the Study Abroad Fair, knowing only that I wanted to study in Spain, which lead me to the ISA table and Raquel. She was such a lively, sweet woman and really helped me zero-in on what I wanted from the experience. She asked great questions and helped me figure out that Malaga would probably be the best city for me to study in.
