If you are planning to study abroad we know that it can be difficult to decide, not only what country you are going to travel to, but what school you will study with. Each month we pick a school that we are certain will deliver a wonderful study abroad experience for our readers. This month we chose the ECELA Spanish Schools. ECELA has five wonderful locations to choose from: Santiago Chile, Cusco and Lima Peru, Buenos Aires and Bariloche Argentina. And each location has something very special to offer!
