Location CC-CS is located in Seville, Spain. It is a beautiful town with a crowded centre full of narrow streets and small squares. Its flamenco, bullfighting and nightlife are unparalleled. Every April, Seville throws one of Spain 's biggest parties, the Feria de Abril. A couple of weeks before the feria, the city has Semana Santa (Holy Week) processions that are among the most splendid in Spain.
Program of Study The Center for Cross-Cultural Study offers a US-modeled curriculum with a wide variety of course offerings. Students take upper division classes in Spanish language, literature, history and society. They are encouraged to attend the January term if studying spring semester. Qualified students may take courses with Spanish students at the University of Seville or complete an internship.

Homestays include full room and board as well as laundry and the cleaning of the student's room. The Center regularly inspects the homes to ensure that it provides a warm and tranquil environment.
