This four-week immersion program offers an exciting opportunity to those who would like intensive work in Spanish combined with the opportunity to experience the culture and beauty of Costa Rica. Students who want to study in Costa Rica can choose from two different programs offered by the Costa Rica Spanish Institute. Those who prefer to enhance their language skills along the white, sandy beaches of the Pacific and with the rainforest nearby can opt for a stay in Manuel Antonio.
