UNIVERSIDAD DE CANTABRIA

 

The University of Cantabria offers UT students an excellent opportunity to take a variety of courses alongside local students. The University is ranked among the top universities in the country and offers a diverse learning environment in a vibrant coastal city.

Students take regular university courses with students from the host country.

Participants earn regular UT in-residence credit. All grades earned for the courses taken are computed into the official UT Austin GPA, just as they would be for grades earned in courses taken on campus.
