Fall is a great time to start thinking about studying abroad.

The TOEFL will not only be required to attend a foreign university, but it will also be necessary to apply for any scholarships offered in Spain.

To apply for an international scholarship in Spain, you MUST start planning at least a year in advance so that you have time to prepare all of the necessary documents and get ready for the compulsory interviews.

Steps for studying abroad with a scholarship:

1. Start brushing up on your English.

2. Research the various scholarships offered in Spain and find out the exact pre-requisites to apply.

3. Decide on the scholarship that works for you and start preparing the documentation: translate official documents, write your application letter, etc…

4. Get ready to take the TOEFL.

5. Turn everything in before the deadline and wait for your acceptance letter!

Here are a few websites for some of the best scholarships offered in Spain:

• Caja Madrid
• La Caixa
• Fulbright Commission

GOOD LUCK!
