Summer Study at the Arcadia Center in Barcelona

If you want to spend the summer in the very heart of one of Europe's most cosmopolitan and elegant cities, the Arcadia program in Barcelona may be just the place. Arcadia in Barcelona is an international study center located in the city center, just a short walk from the prestigious University of Barcelona.

Both the University of Barcelona and the Arcadia in Barcelona center are situated in the bustling neighborhood of l'Eixample, home to many of Barcelona's most interesting attractions and intriguing architecture, including the Gaudí Museum and la Pedrera (named for its remarkable grey stone façade and colorful rooftop chimney pots), a classic example of Gaudí's eccentric genius.

The Arcadia Advantage
Once you arrive, our resident director will lead an orientation program that will introduce you to the culture, history and politics of Spain and Catalonia, as well as preparing you for the academic challenges of studying in a different educational system. Arcadia in Barcelona is staffed by experienced student service professionals and faculty dedicated to supporting students throughout their study abroad experience and helping them find ways to take full advantage of their time abroad. The center is beautifully renovated and its facilities include classrooms, student lounges, a library, computer lab, and administrative offices.

Message from the Colleges of the Fenway
Global Education Opportunities Center

Please be aware that study abroad involves two application deadlines - the application deadline for Arcadia University (the provider of this study abroad program), and the deadline to seek approval from your home campus Study Abroad Director (in order to receive credit for participating in this program). 

In general, you will need to inform your home campus Study Abroad Director by the "Application Deadline" indicated below.  By pressing on the "Apply Now" button, you will begin the process of notifying your home campus Study Abroad Director of your intent to study abroad.  In order to participate in this program, you will also need to follow the application instructions of Arcadia, as indicated above.

Keep in mind that if it appears that a deadline date has already passed for the time that you wish to study abroad, you should still make contact with both your Study Abroad Director and the program provider, by pressing on the "Request Info" button and stating clearly your desired dates.  While it can never be guaranteed, there are cases when last-minute requests can be accommodated.
