Universidad Carlos III de Madrid Reviews

The gap year program is a great program for not only academic reasons but also for personal growth. With the cultural activities available and the international environment of both the university and the city of Madrid, one is certain to grow as a person and learn a lot. I have been able to collaborate with the international school on many projects, I have been able to give back to the community by volunteering at university in Models of the United Nations and I have also been physically active by continuously joining the gym at UC3M and attending dance classes. The program has also helped me build some soft-skills such as cooperation, team-work and organization.

The IFP course has been one of the main reasons behind my academic, professional and social success. The program is designed in such a way that it provides students with great introductory courses in various fields. As a student of natural sciences, I found the introductory courses in the social sciences essential in preparing me for my four-year degree at UC3M. Additionally, the small-sized classes were great for better learning and it had also helped us make friends and meet people much more easily.

I highly recommend this program because it is a completely different experience. It helps you get to know the culture of Spain, enjoy life in the city, and to develop soft skills that will help you in the future. It's a different perspective than if you went directly to university.
Great bridge to integrate you first in the city and then start with university life. During this program you will get to attend on great lectures with amazing teachers, interact with people from different cultures and simply enjoy sunny life in the capital of Spain!

I studied in Universidad Carlos III International Foundation Program in the academic year of 2020/2021 and this program gave me a great bridge towards university degree.
In my case, I didn't study academically since I finished my high school studies, and I found it very important to have a smooth transition into the world of college. During this program I got to attend on great lectures with amazing teachers, interact with people from different cultures and simply enjoy sunny life in the capital of Spain.
