SLU-Madrid doesn't have a housing requirement, so you are free to choose what's best for you. SLU-Madrid strongly suggests that new students live with a host family or in a nearby residence hall to help them adjust to living in a new place.
Your best source of information is our housing page.
If you do not hold a European passport and you will be in Spain for one semester or more, you must apply for a Spanish student visa at your nearest consulate. Students who do not hold a European Union or U.S. passport must pay for one full semester's tuition before SLU-Madrid issues their student visa documentation. Your consulate is the best source of information, however, we can get you started on the basics on our Visas for Spain page.
Registration begins two to three months before the start of your academic term and only after you have completed the pre-registration tasks. Your academic adviser will create a first-semester plan for you.
We also offer transfer credit for classes from other institutions (AP, CLEP, IB Highers).
If your admission has the condition that you must send final academic documents, have your registrar or college counselor send them before the beginning of your term; failure to do so will mean you cannot register for your second-semester classes.
