Personal comments
At first I was concerned about taking classes taught in Spanish, but the tutors were used to teaching international students and I experienced no real problems. Socially, I gained confidence with time and by the end of the semester, I felt much more at ease. The fact that there were lots of international students from all over the world helped enormously, as Spanish bcame our common language.

Course recommendations
UDLA offers a wide range of subjects. Of course most are in Spanish but teachers are very helpful to non Spanish speakers. I took 2 Spanish classes, Mexican Revolution (great) and Mexican Literature all in English. They were all worthwhile subjects.

Personal comments
As I was taking subjects geared towards International students they were not extremely rigorous academically. But that was fine with me.

Personal comments
I didn't live on campus, but the accommodation there seemed very impressive - extremely modern, clean and attractive. There was plenty of cheap, reasonable accomodation available to rent in the town for those, like myself, who preferred to live off campus.

Course recommendations
If your spanish is decent enough for real university classes, you will have lots of options. Otherwise, there are a few english classes and a bunch of dreadful language classes.

Personal comments
Class quality will depend on your professor, but doesn't it always? All in all, it was a relaxed semester. Lots of the reading was in English even though I was taking universtity level courses.
