Welcome to ASSIST Spain

2011/12 ASSIST Scholars from Spain

 

ASSIST Spain was established to help young Spanish students currently in the 10th grade who would like to spend one year as exchange students in the United States as 11th graders. There are also some opportunities available to students entering the 10th and 12th grades and as postgraduate students.

Our work in Spain began in the 1974-1975 academic year. Our first Spanish scholars distinguished themselves in their American independent schools, and ultimately 325 Spanish students have studied in the States under our auspices.
