What is Included: Participating students will be assessed the cost of the host program’s tuition, room and board. Students will not receive Alma aid (including tuition exchange benefits, where applicable) for the semester off-campus, though they will be eligible for an additional term of Alma aid if they choose to stay on campus for a 9th term. Students can use any federal and state aid for which they are eligible toward the off-campus program. In the absence of an Alma tuition charge, a Registration Fee of $500 will be assessed to help cover administrative costs associated with processes and oversight.

Language majors who are studying abroad to fulfill a language program requirement will have the option of being assessed Alma tuition and receiving Alma aid (at the level they receive for on-campus enrollment) for up to one semester off campus or the fee structure described above (including access to a 9th term of aid if it is unused due to the off-campus experience).

All program related fees other than tuition such as room, board, books, etc. that are invoiced to Alma College will also be added to the Alma College student account.

Program Description

Live and study in the Principality of Asturias located along the Iberian Peninsula’s Costa Verde. Experience this “natural paradise” in the mountains, rivers, lakes, and beaches surrounding this lush green city. Explore the pedestrian streets and plazas near the historic Cathedral de San Salvador; explore the Calle Gascona and drink traditional sidra; visit the Romanesque monuments of nearby Mt. Naranco. Discover the city that Woody Allen described as “ . . . a delicious, exotic and beautiful city as if it belonged to another world, something similar to a fairy tale.” With its cosmopolitan air and lively nightlife thriving alongside the traditions of the city’s Celtic roots, Oviedo is your doorway to Northern Spain past and present.

Surrounded by stunning countryside, Oviedo’s monumental Old Quarter, its Gothic cathedral of San Salvador and 400-year old University are the perfect setting to experience Spanish language, society and culture.

AHA Oviedo offers you the opportunity to immerse yourself in Spanish culture, by studying on the fall or spring semester immersion programs, the summer sessions, or the Hispanic Heritage program for native speakers of Spanish.
