Veritas University
Catalog Code: ISJW1209

OverviewCoursesItineraryExcursionsUniversitiesPhotosHousingOn-Site Staff
Students may complete up to three courses of college level Spanish as well as additional electives in various fields during one twelve-week session in Costa Rica. Several of the electives offered are taught in Spanish (for advanced level Spanish speakers), and others are taught in English. Another great advantage of this program is that language courses are four weeks long. Students can complete an intensive Spanish language course in four weeks and then move on to a higher level Spanish class. Students are entitled to enroll in a total of four courses (combination of electives and four-week language courses). For an extra fee, and if schedules allow, students may take a fifth course. All classes are at Veritas University with American and other international students.

Minimum Admissions Prerequisites

There is no language prerequisite for this program.

For beginning, intermediate, and advanced levels.

All students must take a Spanish language placement exam upon arrival in San Jose. The exam will indicate each student's language proficiency level, and will determine the courses in which the student is eligible to enroll. Students who arrive in Costa Rica having completed less than one year of college-level Spanish will likely place into beginning level courses. Students who arrive in Costa Rica having completed one full year of college-level Spanish will likely place into the intermediate level courses. Students who arrive in Costa Rica having completed two years of college-level Spanish will likely place into the advanced level coures.
