    Good day everyone! I am planning to Study Spanish abroad, could anyone try to help me out which schools could give secure value on education with best prices to whom low budget students like me could accommodate? Are there any useful resources that could help me deciding which city and Spanish school is best for me? Any input is highly appreciated.

    I'd recommend going to Granada. I spent a year on Erasmus there and was cheap as buttons. Food, accommodation, socalising. Pretty much everything. Granted that was 12 years ago but I was back there in October and certainly food and socialising was VERY cheap still. And Ryanair fly there (not sure whether that is a positive or negative thing :D)

    Granada itself is a small city but has a great atmosphere and is a real student town. Very easy to meet people if you make a little but of an effort. Given the size, it is easy to get around and there is usually plenty of accommodation available. Outside the city centre it's not the pretties (but then where is...) but still worth seeing. The Alhambra is simply spectacular!

    I was studying in the Translation Faculty at the time and the courses I attended were pretty good. The university has it's own langauge school and this is where I attended Spanish language classes. It is very centrally located and would be worth looking into.

    Another place worth considering is Seville. Never studied there but a great place to visit.

    If you are on a budget, avoid Barcelona and Madrid. Beautiful cities but expensive!
