Spanish Language Courses.
Academic course 2008 – 2009

During 14 years, the department of Spanish Language which belongs to the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities has offered courses of Spanish Language for international students. All these years have provided us with great experience to do this work.

We have had students from many different countries mainly from Sweden, Denmark, Canada, United States, Ghana, Jamaica etc.

During the academic course 2008 – 2009 the levels to be offered are: (Level1, Level2, Level3)

The courses will have 16 hours / lessons per week. Each hour / lesson lasts 45 minutes. That makes a total of 64 hours / lessons per month.

Classes will be on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Classes will be from 9:00 AM a 12:00 PM or from 1:00 PM a 4:00 PM as the department of Spanish Language states for every specific course.

The students should include the following personal information in their application.

Place of birth

Course and level desired.

Once the above information is sent, a confirmation of studies letter will be sent to the students. This letter should be printed and presented by the students when they arrive to our university.

All the interested persons should arrive in our country having a student visa.

This visa will be processed once the student is accepted by the academic area and sent to the Cuban embassy located in the country of the student. It will be valid during 30 days after the arrival of the student in our country. If the studies require more than 30 days, this visa should be extended.

In an exceptional way, the interested ones could arrive in the country with a tourist visa. Once accepted by the academic area a member of our staff will only change it into student visa. In these cases the immigration authorities in the country reserve the right of their approval.

All the processes in relation with visas are done at the local immigration office. They all require a certain fee in stamps bought at a certain bank in CUC (Cuban Convertible Peso). To change from Tourist Visa to Student Visa, 40.00 CUC. To extend a Student Visa, 25.00 CUC.

The students should send their application at least 2 months in advance before the course begins.

The Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities has the right of admission.

Cost: 340.00 CUC (Cuban Convertible Pesos) to be paid in cash.

The applications should be sent to:
