Program Structure
Choose to take courses both at the CEA CAPA Madrid Center and Universidad Antonio de Nebrija (UAN) or take all your courses at the Universidad Antonio de Nebrija (UAN).
By selecting the CEA CAPA & UAN hybrid program, you'll enroll in 1-2 CEA CAPA courses and 2-3 UAN elective or language courses. Early Start students enroll in an additional language course.
By selecting the UAN only program, you'll enroll in 4-5 elective or language courses per semester. Please note: If you intend on taking 5 elective courses, one must be in Spanish. That is, you can take a maximum of 4 elective courses in English. Early Start students enroll in an additional language course.
In fall semester, all courses meet for 45 contact hours/3 credits. In spring semester, language and elective courses meet for 45 contact hours/3 credits; spring Early Start language courses meet for 90 contact hours/6 credits. You may earn 12-15 credits (up to 225 contact hours). If you choose the Early Start option you may earn 15-18 credits (up to 270 contact hours) in the fall semester, or 18-21 credits (up to 315 contact hours) in the spring semester.
Courses may meet in the morning or afternoon, Monday-Friday. Active learning components required by your courses may be scheduled for Fridays.
Prior to departure, you will select your preferred courses and take a language placement exam to determine your language level. You'll be enrolled into courses based on their availability.
It is in your best interest to have multiple alternative courses approved by your home university prior to your departure due to course availabilities. To ensure that you receive credit for the language level you place into, have your home university pre-approve courses at several levels before you leave for Spain. Please consult with your academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.
