Every year, approximately 1,200 students from around the world attend UA to study Spanish language and culture.
Just a short bus ride (about three miles) from Alicante’s city center, UA’s campus encompasses more than 1,000 square meters of wooded areas (70% of the campus is dedicated to green space), a beautiful lake, and facilities that include a museum, art gallery, 24-hour library, indoor and outdoor sports stadiums, restaurants, and banks.

Credit Transfer Information
University of Alicante awards credits based on the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) system. CEA CAPA credit hour recommendations are based on the following conversion: 2 ECTS credits equals 1 U.S. semester credit. Credit transfer is ultimately determined by your home university. Please consult with an academic advisor at your home university on credit pre-approval guidelines.
Transcript Information
Students receive a transcript from the University of Alicante upon successful completion of the program. The transcript will reflect ECTS credits and contact hours.
Accreditation

Grading
Grade conversions from CEA CAPA partner institutions abroad to a US grading scale are determined in consultation with our School of Record and benchmarked with other peer institutions in the field.
Please note that CEA CAPA can only recommend grade conversions to students’ home institutions—it is ultimately at the discretion of the home institution to convert grades from abroad to students’ academic records.

Program Structure & Courses
In the Fall semester you'll enroll in 1-3 Core courses, 1 Spanish language or elective course and 0-2 elective courses. Starting with Spring 2025, you’ll enroll in 1 Spanish language or culture course, and 3 UA English courses. You have the option to add an additional Spanish or English elective course for an additional fee ($825).
Language/culture courses meet for 60 contact hours/4 credits, elective courses, taught in English, meet for 45-60 contact hours/2-3 credits. You may earn 13 credits (up to 240 contact hours)or 17 credits, if selecting the additional course.
Spanish language/culture courses meet 2 times per week; schedules for elective courses vary and will be finalized on-site. You’ll have the option to sit in different courses during the first 2 weeks before schedules will be finalized.
Before you leave for Alicante, you will select your preferred courses and take a language placement exam. You'll be enrolled into courses based on 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 school 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.
Students receive a transcript from University of Alicante upon completion of their program.
Final Exams
The period established at the UA for local students to take their finals runs past the CEA CAPA program dates. However, CEA CAPA students will be allowed to either take your finals in advanced before the program ends or have them proctored at their Host Institution. You should approach your professors during the first half of your program to learn which option they will give you.
