hi all... i currently work and live in madrid... i have already graduated from uni in the us (with a humanities degree, philosophy and religion) but i would like to take some classes here (while working) for interest... my spanish is high intermediate and i want to take the classes in spanish, like an erasmus student.
it seems that complutense is my best bet... but i don't really have any idea of how to get started... i've looked on their website and i think i would like to take some sociology/ political science classes... but any idea on enrollment? i will go to the campus sometime i guess but am afraid of being overwhelmed.. and i wasn't sure if places fill up and i should go at a certain time and if i have to fulfill any certain requirements..so i thought i would give a shout out here... if i could work towards a recognized degree here that would be best but if i just start out with a few classes that would be okay too... my students told me it should be about 1000€ per year for a full workload... i think it would be good if i ever go back to the us to show that i was keeping my brain active and learning new things and in fact, teaching english and working at a youth hostel, i feel that i really do need to get my brain active!!
my problem is that i love madrid and my bf who lives here with me, but am missing professional fulfillment... so when the time comes i want to be able to jump at it.. and i think studying is what i need to get some, at least, academic fulfillment.
so yeah, anyone who has experience with studying here in a spanish uni please post... i'm not going through a school in the us but i am still a foreigner so i don't know what the procedure is...
