Many Spanish universities offer different types of exchange programs, such as the Socrates Erasmus, the Rafael and the Leonardo Da Vinci program. Similar bilateral and multilateral agreements exist with Latin American countries, the United States, Canada, and the Middle East. Most universities have an international relations office where the necessary information about exchange programs within Spain is available.
The website of the Spanish Education and Culture Ministry is a good place to research and gather information for studying in Spain.
Spanish universities start in October/February (1st Semester) and then February/June (2nd semester). Before you can attend any classes you are required to register first with the Erasmus or International Office and then with the university, usually in your specific faculty. You will need the following documents to register:
-
Identity documents (passport).
-
Document attesting grant-recipient status (award statement, certificate from the university).
-
Passport photographs.
-
Health Insurance documents.
