Why "el casal"? |
Unique OfferingsWith myriad language study and travel programs in Spain to choose from, you need good reasons to choose El Casal. Here are a few:
It's small, around ten participants.You'll make friends among your fellow high school graduates, but you won't feel as though you're living in an American "bubble" within Spain. You'll have the time and the opportunity to make friends outside our little community.
It's "self-contained".That is, the Director oversees every aspect of the program: living arrangements, seminars, activities, travel, service projects... you name it. Our oversight and the accessibility of the Director and staff ensure a quality experience for you.
It's specialized.El Casal is the only program of its kind conceived specifically for gap year students in Spain. We are looking for well-qualified, daring, intellectually curious and highly motivated graduates who are ready for challenges that go beyond the classroom.
It’s not just about bullfights, beaches, paella and the other things that many tourists associate with Spain. Not that there’s anything wrong with a good paella, but we assume that you want to be more than a tourist. You’ll learn about Spain’s past, but you'll also focus on today's Spain, the one that looks toward the rest of Europe and toward the future.
