Best experience ever!
November 18, 2024by: Lucy Dixon - United StatesProgram: SAI Study Abroad at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona)Studying abroad in Barcelona was a phenomenal experience. Not just because of the beautiful city, but the SAI program genuinely made my entire semester so much more enjoyable. The staff in Barcelona was always so extremely helpful with any questions we had or if we wanted to do an activity. I joined the club soccer team through SAI and met some of my best friends. Cannot recommend this program enough!!
Summer in Barcelona
April 04, 2023by: Julia Fulton - United StatesProgram: SAI Study Abroad at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona)I studied in Barcelona the summer of 2022 and it was incredible. Prior to this, I only traveled out of country to Canada and the Bahamas with my family so it was a brand new experience going to Europe by myself. I wanted to take the jump so I did, chose random roommates and decided to go to Barcelona. Right off the bat, I was greeted by some of the SAI on site team and driven back to my apartment. They helped me up and introduced me to my roommates. We got to know each other immediately. I had that weekend free and then started class that Monday. One of my roommates was in my class which was amazing so we commuted about a half hour on the metro together. My apartment was directly next to The Sagrada Familia (most beautiful location ever) and the campus was near the beach. My class was from 6-9pm Monday - Thursday. We would take the bus right after class to the beach every day. My class had students from the US, local students, and other international students. It was a film class and the premise of the class was to create a film on your own. We decided to film a local festival. This was an incredible way to immerse myself directly into the culture. On the weekends, I traveled from to Madrid to visit family one week, Ibiza one weekend, and the other weekends I just explored the city and local beach towns. By far the best summer of my life!
Best summer in Barcelona!
December 10, 2022by: Julia Fulton - United StatesProgram: SAI Study Abroad at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona)Overall my experience in Barcelona was amazing! From the school to the programs administration, it was all incredible. I had support from the moment I completed my application now. The administration from the headquarters in the US and in Barcelona still keep in touch as are so friendly and helpful. The activities they provided were also amazing, especially the day trips to other local towns. My University was great and I really enjoyed the class I took. I took a film and documentary class! It started off slow but picked up as we started shooting our own.
