Amazing experience in Alicante!

I loved the USAC Program Alicante. I was there from January - May 2025. I chose Spain because I wanted the classic European study abroad experience and I chose Spain because I wanted to work on my Spanish. I stayed with a host family that was super kind and made great food and was located close to the city center of Alicante, and about a 20 minute walk to the beach. The classes were very interesting and had good professors but a very manageable amount of homework. It was really nice to not have classes on Fridays. Alicante is a beautiful city on the Mediterranean and as a mid size Spanish city, it has everything you need and more, but isn't too overwhelming. The program director from USAC was very kind, friendly, and helpful. I would highly recommend this program! I would recommend looking up Youtube videos of Alicante to see what the city looks like. It also has a nice airport with a good amount of flights.
