Going abroad has been fantastic… My experience abroad has been fantastic and something I’ll always remember. All of the supervisors and staff have been a great help throughout the entire process. Getting to know the other abroad students has also been amazing and I now have connections for life I wouldn’t have had otherwise. Through all of the trips we made and the experiences I got through my internship, I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities I’ve been given and the memories I’ve made here. I think the program was well worth it and I honestly can’t think of anything I’d really change :)

Really helpful and welcoming The company was amazing in helping me feel welcomed and accepted into a new country. They provided resources that were really helpful throughout my stay and I believe that without them I would've been kinda lost on where to go and how to go about things.

AIFS MADRID INTERNSHIP Great time with my host company and program coordinator, I am happy with the people I was assigned. I appreciate helphousing and Lourdes a lot, they made my experience worthwhile. Only things that I wish were different were the small housing issues we had to deal with during the entire time here, but I appreciate all of the efforts of the staff to fix things as much as possible.

Well worth it for the memories and friendships This program was amazing! Janan had so many fun events and really made Spain feel like home. I am so grateful to have had her as a coordinator. This is the perfect program for anyone looking into studying at Spain while also experiencing what Spanish culture is truly about. Valencia was the perfect mix of large city and local community.

People The people I met were the reason for my rating. Aifs could’ve done a better job with apartments all around. We could’ve all been closer together at the least instead of being scattered, it’d be nicer if everyone was closer to the study center too. My apartment alone was significantly in worse condition than the others. I saw many apartments and all of them I would’ve rather lived in. Coordinators need to see the apartments for themselves in person before students arrive.
