The City

 

Sevilla is a city that stimulates all of the senses – the flutter of Flamenco guitar coming from the nighttime tablaos, the heady fragrance of orange trees, the smell of freshly made tapas being delivered to an outdoor table, and the colorful Spanish tiles that grace buildings, plazas, and street signs. The vibrancy of this city, its people’s zest for life, and its ancient multicultural history are reflected in its aesthetic everywhere you look.

Home to 600,000 people, Sevilla is the capital city of the Andalucía region in southern Spain. Originally built by the Romans, Sevilla has an incredible number of palaces, churches, museums, and towers to explore. Probably the most impressive is the Cathedral, which was built in the 1400’s and is one of the largest cathedrals in the world.

Sevillanos are very outgoing folks who celebrate life through food, music, friends, and lively conversation. Not surprisingly, Sevillanos love a good party! At gatherings, you’ll often see locals spontaneously break into Flamenco dance – a beloved part of their culture. The city’s annual festivals, such as Semana Santaand Feria de Sevilla, draw huge crowds from all over the world. Feria, in particular, is not to be missed! Every year in April/May, the city becomes one huge party – a week of food, dancing, parades, and locals dressed up in Flamenco dresses and traditional costumes.

UNIVERSIDAD DE SEVILLA

Universidad de Sevilla has an impressive history, dating back to the 15th century. Today, the university is located in Sevilla city center in a Baroque 18th century building, the second-largest building in Spain. This building was also the first cigarette factory in the world, called the Real Fábrica de Tabacos. During the 19th century, 75% of Europe’s cigars were manufactured there by more than 3,000 cigareras (female cigar makers). These workers inspired the French author Prosper Mérimée to create the character Carmen in a novella, which later became the basis for the world-famous Bizet opera, Carmen.

All of the professors at Universidad de Sevilla are masters or doctors in their respective fields and there are approximately 10,000 Spanish students, plus a number of international students from all over the world.

Of special interest to history students is the Archivo General de las Índias. These archives house the world’s most important collection of historical documents of the Spanish Empire in the Americas. Among the collection are writings from the Spanish Conquistadores, the journal of Christopher Columbus, and original maps and city plans of Spanish colonial settlements in America. The archive is an invaluable resource to any student interested in the pre-Columbian and colonial history of Latin America. Students who receive special permission from a professor may use the archives for their research.

 

UNIVERSIDAD PABLO DE OLAVIDE

Universidad Pablo de Olavide (UPO), founded in 1997, is one of Spain’s newest public universities. Named after an 18th century Peruvian intellectual, it is a dynamic institution with approximately 10,500 students and 1,000 professors. Degree areas offered include Social Anthropology, Psychology, Public Health, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Engineering, Sports Science, Business, Economics, Social Work, and more. The UPO is also home to the Andalusian Center of Developmental Biology, which brings together researchers from all over Andalucía, some of whom also teach at the UPO. The UPO was recently ranked the second most productive Spanish university in science research.

UPO is situated on a beautiful 345-acre campus less than 5 miles from Sevilla’s city center. The Metro (subway) system in Sevilla makes it easy to reach the UPO – it takes most students only about 30 minutes to get to the university from their program housing. For those who are interested in biking to class, the university is also connected by a bike path to many parts of Sevilla.

The UPO campus was modeled after American university campuses, with ample space for academic buildings, computer and science laboratories, and top-notch sports facilities – a gym, high performance table tennis courts, indoor basketball and soccer courts, an outdoor running track, and outdoor playing fields.

The UPO organizes an array of social and cultural activities to help international students fully integrate into the local culture, such as guided visits to monuments and museums, Spanish film showings, sports events, Flamenco classes, and more. ASA students will also have access to the UPO volunteer office, where you can learn how to get involved in the local community. Another great way to meet locals and Spanish students is to join the UPO student soccer league or student chorus.

 

CENTRO UNIVERSITARIO EUSA

Centro Universitario EUSA is a private university in Sevilla that was founded in 1961. It has been affiliated with Universidad de Sevilla since 1996. EUSA is an excellent choice for Media and Communications majors, as they offer undergraduate degrees in Audiovisual Communication, Journalism, Advertising & Public Relations, and Tourism.

ASA’s study abroad program at EUSA offers over 30 different subject areas with classes available in Spanish and English, ranging from Media Studies to Business to Cultural Studies to History.

The EUSA campus is located in Sevilla city center, a short walk from the famous Plaza de España. EUSA is one of the most modern educational settings in Europe, fostering intercultural exchange and cooperation among students. This is an excellent opportunity to take classes alongside European students, as well as American and other international students.

 

1 overnight excursion and 2 day excursions are included with Semester programs. Destinations may vary by term. Past terms have included trips to:

  • Granada (overnight excursion) – Dating back to the 8th century BC, Granada is one of Spain’s most fascinating and culturally rich cities. See the breathtaking Alhambra palace and its gardens, built by the Moors in the 11th century. We’ll visit the Albacín and its remnants of Granada’s medieval Moorish past, as well as the Cathedral, where King Ferdinand and Queen Isabel are buried.
  • Itálica (day excursion) – Itálica was the first city on the Iberian peninsula founded by the Romans. At Cotidiana Vitae, see a reproduction of a 2,000-year-old Roman house, and tour the Roman ruins with its 25,000 seat amphitheater.
  • Córdoba (day excursion) – During the 10th and 11th centuries under Muslim rule, Córdoba was one of the world’s largest and most advanced cities, as well as one of great religious diversity. A center of learning in math and astronomy, it housed the world’s largest library. We’ll visit the 8th century Mosque, the Jewish quarter, and explore the winding, ancient cobbled streets.

Experiences

Getting out and exploring on your own is one of the best parts about studying abroad. Here are just a few of the unforgettable experiences you can have abroad with ASA!

 
 

 

Did you go abroad with ASA and have a memorable experience we should add to this list? Contact us! We'd love to hear from you!

Housing

Students will complete a Housing Request Form after being accepted to the program. ASA then places students within our housing pool while accommodating as many preferences as possible. Most of the time, we’re able to place students in their first choice housing option, but due to limited space in certain options, we can’t guarantee all preferences will be met.

 

Housing options:

 

  • Spanish homestay (3 meals a day and 1 load of laundry per week included). Semester rooms are single occupancy. Summer rooms may be double (shared) or single occupancy. Bathrooms are shared. The majority of homestays host 1-2 students at a time, or in rare cases perhaps 1-2 more, depending on how large their flat is.
  • Residence Hall (meals not included). Nido Residence Hall offers apartment-style living including single bedrooms, gym, and 24/7 security. Each flat has 1-4 bedrooms and a shared bathroom, as well as a kitchenette. In addition, each floor has a communal kitchen. Nido houses students from any country and is all gender. Nido means “nest” in Spanish! SPACE IS LIMITED. APPLY EARLY FOR BEST AVAILABILITY!
    • If Nido is full, students may be placed in a different residence hall or in fully furnished shared apartments, where rooms may be double (shared) or single. 
    • Students living at Nido or another residence hall may occasionally share a flat with non-ASA students.
  • All housing includes Internet and are located in safe neighborhoods, within a reasonable distance from school.

Housing FAQ

Can I room with a friend?

In most cases we are able to accommodate same-gender roommate requests. If it is not possible to place you in the same room or apartment, we will do our best to place you in the same building. Mixed gender roommate requests can sometimes be accommodated, but you will not be sharing a room. Roommate requests must be mutual, so be sure your friend requests you back! You will complete a detailed Housing Questionnaire after being accepted to the program, and on this form you can give us the name(s) of those you want to live with. 

When will I find out where I'll be living?

ASA will notify you of your living arrangements via email approximately 2 weeks before the start of your program. You will receive a detailed description of your housing and the location, and if there is another ASA student in your housing we will include their name and email address.

What if I don't like my host family?

If it is a problem with the homestay and not a language or cultural misunderstanding, ASA will move you to a different homestay right away. We have on-site staff in every city who are there to help students with any issues they encounter while abroad, and who check in periodically with students throughout their stay to ensure all is well.

Will my host family speak English?

No, but there’s no need to worry! Living in a homestay is the best way for you to learn Spanish, and you’ll be amazed at how quickly you will improve. Also, don’t forget that they've hosted international students before, so they understand that you are there to learn their language and want to help you.

What should I bring with me?

A detailed list of what to bring (and what not to bring) will be included in your ASA pre-departure handbook, which will be emailed to you about a month before your program begins. Students living in a homestay should consider bringing a small gift for their host, such as a candle, kitchen towel, chocolates, etc.

Are meals included?

Homestay accommodation includes 3 meals a day. Residence Hall/Shared Apartment accommodation does not include meals, but you'll have a kitchen where you can prepare meals, and grocery stores are within walking distance.

What is the food like?

The food is great and will be typical of your host country. Be prepared to try new things! If you have any food allergies or dietary needs, please let ASA know as soon as possible and we'll be happy to advise you on your options.

How far will I live from school?

Most housing is within a 15-25 minute walk from Universidad de Sevilla or Centro Universitario EUSA. The commute to Universidad Pablo de Olavide is typically around 30 minutes by subway. Please rest assured that we place a high priority on location, and all ASA students live within a reasonable distance from their classes!

Accessibility & Inclusion

Diversifying study abroad is a priority for ASA. Detailed information for underrepresented groups considering Sevilla can be found below. You should also check out Diversity Abroad’s Spain Travel Guide.

 

If you have questions or concerns about how any of your identities may impact your study abroad experience, please contact us.

Details

Culture & Ethnicity

Sevilla is the capital of Andalucía, one of the 17 autonomous communities within Spain.

 

The racial and ethnic makeup of Spain is becoming just as diverse as its languages. The total number of Spanish Muslims is nearly 2 million when factoring nationals as well as migrants from Morocco, Pakistan, Senegal, and other countries. While the Spanish government does not record statistics on the ethnic and racial background of its population, it records the population of non-citizens in Spain, which in 2018 equaled 4.7 million, around 10% of the population. Migrants largely come from the following countries: Morocco, Romania, UK, China, Colombia, Ecuador, Bulgaria, Germany, and Ukraine. Spain has the largest Romanian population in Western Europe, as well as a small Jewish community primarily residing in Madrid, Barcelona, Málaga, and a couple other cities.

 

The population of Sevilla is primarily of Spanish descent. Spaniards descend from multiple ancestries: the Moors of the Middle Ages, the Romans, and the pre-Roman Iberian peoples. Non-nationals make up about 4% of the city’s inhabitants, and they are mainly from Morocco, Ecuador, and Colombia, as well as Peru, China, Bolivia, and Argentina. About half of Spain’s gitano population lives in Sevilla.

 

Black salons (click here and here), barbershops, and all-gender hairdressers are available in Sevilla. There are also stores that sell Black haircare products, but you should consider bringing your favorite haircare products with you and enough to last your entire stay, because you may not find the same brands or variety of products that you’re used in the US. Here are some helpful suggestions on haircare products and tools to bring with you. You can also check out the Diversity Abroad guide to managing Black hair abroad.

Disability Accommodation

Spain’s ‘Developed National Accessibility Plan’ requires the removal of all architectural barriers to help accommodate disabled persons. Other legislation has also been implemented to ensure social inclusion and integration is a normality across Spain.

 

According to Wheel the World, the tourism industry in Spain tries to comply with accessibility guarantees, and transportation has adaptations. Public transit in Sevilla is wheelchair accessible, and in general, major museums, restaurants and accommodations do not have obstacles for people with reduced mobility. However, Sevilla does have some cobblestone streets, especially in the historic districts. Additional information can be found here. Airports in Spain have free assistance for people with reduced mobility, hearing and vision as well as cognitive disabilities. For more information about these services, click here.

 

We encourage you to open a dialogue with us so we can assess accessibility in housing and academic spaces. The U.S. State Department has advice for international travelers with disabilities at this link.

Food

If you live in the residence hall, you will prepare your own meals. If you live with a homestay family, please notify us about any special dietary needs with as much advance notice as possible, so we can assess whether your needs can be accommodated within a homestay.

 

Resources for dietary needs for allergies, religious beliefs, or other preferences below. We strongly encourage you to order food/allergy translation cards to help communicate your needs while abroad.

 

Financial Aid & Money Matters

ASA allows payment deferral until your institution releases your Financial Aid, and we offer payment plans upon request to students who need it. More information on billing and payment can be found here.

ASA also has several scholarships you can apply for within our program application. Students who receive a Pell Grant as part of their Financial Aid package are eligible to apply for the Gilman Scholarship.

First Generation
ASA provides hands-on support throughout the entire process. This includes housing, course registration, flight and arrival logistics, and student visa guidance. While you're abroad, our on-site staff is available to support you 24/7. They coordinate social and cultural activities and offer guidance on the local culture, to give you and your support system peace of mind throughout your program. We also have an online orientation for parents/families/support systems at this link.
Gender Identity & Sexuality

We welcome students with any gender identity and sexuality on all of our programs.

 

Spain is one of the most progressive countries in the world regarding gender and sexuality. Homosexuality and the right to gender change are legal, while discrimination of any kind is illegal. While there is still no official recognition of non-binary genders, the country does recognize intersex and has legislation upholding their rights.

 

Check out the International LGBTQ+ Travel Association Guide here.

Mental Health

Students with a range of mental health conditions can successfully study abroad. If you take any medications, please review the U.S. State Department recommendations for traveling abroad with medications.

 

ASA is happy to talk to you about what resources are available for any mental or physical health needs you have. Please reach out to us by clicking here. Having advance notice of what your needs are will allow us to identify resources to support you, such as therapy or ongoing medical care to allow you to be successful. Any ASA team member is a safe person to share things with!

 

With your ASA program, you'll also have a paid subscription to mindhamok, a 24-7 service designed to support study abroad students’ mental, physical, and social wellbeing. mindhamok's curated online and live resources give you tools to help you succeed.

 

You can use mindhamok to: Request an appointment with a coach/therapist; Live chat with a coach/therapist about concerns such as roommate issues, relationships, etc.; Discuss homesickness, culture shock, or adjustment concerns; and much more.

 

For more information, see our mental & emotional health information here.

Non-Traditional Students

ASA welcomes all degree-seeking undergraduate students on any of our programs. We are happy to talk through any component of your identity (e.g. age, marital status, parental/caregiver status, military affiliation, et al.) that may affect your ability to participate on a program. Click here to contact us.

Religion

Spain and Sevilla have had a fairly consistent Roman Catholic affiliation through most of their history and currently maintain a majority Christian population, plus a small minority of Protestants. In Sevilla, about 4% of people identify as Muslim, and 1% as Jewish. ASA is happy to help you find a place of worship in Sevilla - just ask us.

Program Calendar

Program dates are subject to change. Although date changes are rare, they are typically changes made by the host institution and are, therefore, outside of ASA’s control. If any changes are made to your program dates, ASA is not responsible for fees or losses associated with changing or canceling your plane ticket, additional lodging and other travel costs, etc.

Please do not book a plane ticket until you are accepted to an ASA program and receive written notification of your program’s arrival and departure dates.
