COURSE SELECTIONS

Students are encouraged to refer to the course selections for each language level in the Salamanca Spanish Language and Culture program. Students select their courses from the same course offerings; they are not, however, incorporated into the existing quarter classes, but complete courses with other short-term students. Course options are limited for December students due to the holiday period.

TRANSCRIPTS

API students will receive a transcript from the University of Salamanca upon completion of their program.
