This is a fabulous program. I cannot say enough about the support and assistance from the UAH Instituto Franklin staff. Above and beyond. You will get all the help you need to get your 101 local and government appointments and so much more. We are just completing our first course of the school year and it was great! I love my classmates, we're a lively bunch from so many walks of life. Finding a place to live was tough. You can't get your own place unless it's by the kindness of a private owner. Realty companies are bound by regulations that require you to show your last Spanish pay stubs. Finding rooms in shared housing is easier, but it was a bit tricky for me because I am a single mom and this is a major college town! I didn't know that! Hahaha. The cost of living is mostly lower than the East Coast in the US which is a relief. Over the counter meds are kind of a pain because they will only sell you like 10 at a time. Transportation is super clean and actually timely. I am having a ridiculously hard time finding doctors are the amount of doctors in the private sector are low and mostly not taking new patients -tbc. I landed a great school, albeit I teach 18 classrooms, which is totally nuts. The school itself is lovely and the staff are all super friendly, they just kind of want me to do more than what an Auxiliar is supposed to. But, that kind of seems to be the theme around here, so don't let anyone push you around. There are rules about how much an Auxie is legally bound to and allowed to do during class time. Again, the staff at UAH have been instrumental in getting this type of thing sorted out. I am loving our time in Alcalá at Instituto Franklin!
