¡Viva la juerga española!




Housing

Full language integration happens in the home, as well as the classroom. During your participation in the Madrid internship program, you live in a Spanish home. Your homestay allows you to experience the warmth and hospitality of Spain while improving your language skills.

In the homestay, students enjoy breakfast, evening meals and, in most cases, weekly laundry. Students may be in single or double rooms. Students commute approx. 30 min from their homestays to the program offices in the center of Madrid. Once you have completed AU Abroad on-line pre-departure forms, an on-site Housing Coordinator will organize your living arrangements before you arrive. During program excursions, students stay in pensions and hotels.

Meals

Students enjoy two meals a day with their host families.

Excursions

Students will enjoy a short weekend excursion lead by on-site staff to another city within Spain.

Schedule

Summer 2008
Arrival*: Monday, May 19
Departure**: Sunday, June 29

* The "Arrival" date is the day on which you need to arrive at your site, NOT the date you leave the U.S. The program starts on the "Arrival" date and this is the day on which program-sponsored housing begins. If you arrive before this date, you are responsible for your own housing. Do not expect to move into program-sponsored housing early.

** The "Departure" date is the official end of the program. All program-related activities will end the night prior to this date (in some cases you may have a farewell dinner, etc.) On the "Departure" day you must leave your housing. Do not expect to stay in program-sponsored housing after the "Departure" date. Program Dates are subject to change.
