The USAC program is based at the University of Alicante, which has a student population of 30,000 and offers two diverse academic areas: Intensive Language and Spanish and European Studies. Have the opportunity to study the Spanish language and the complexities of Spanish and contemporary European societies through a wide selection of academic courses, as well as through personal interaction with the host culture. You may stay for one semester or a full year. Our intensive approach allows you to complete up to two years of university foreign language coursework in only one semester, helping meet Spanish minor or major requirements.

The summer Alicante Program offers two sessions, a five-week session and a four-week session with the option of a four-day visit to Madrid. This program is ideal for those unable to participate in semester or yearlong programs. Students may combine intensive Spanish language courses and elective courses for a minimum of 3 credits and a maximum of 6 credits per summer session. A sailing course is also offered in summer to take advantage of living so close to the Mediterranean Sea.
