  5. These are the top 15 universities in Spain:

  6. Applying • There is no centralized application system for Spanish universities, and each institution will set its own entry requirements and deadlines – so be careful to check with the university itself. • You may need to sit an entrance examination, though EU students and others who have completed International Baccalaureates will often be excused this part of the procedure.

  7. EU Applicants: • You won’t need a visa to study in Spain, but will need to register at the Central Registry Office for Foreigners, from which you will receive a certificate confirming your right to study in Spain. In order to get this, you will need to present a passport or national identity card, and proof that you’ve been accepted onto a course.

  8. Fees • Applicants coming from the EU pay the same tuition fees as local students. These are usually between US$800-1,500 per year at public universities in Spain, and between €5,500-18,000 (~US$6,000-19,670) per year if you study in Spain at a private-sector university. • If you come from a non-EU country, your fees will be higher, but only marginally. For exact information on your tuition fees, contact your chosen university or visit its website.

But the service is very limited on the main line, the Spanish Speed Train (AVE), running only from Catalonia to Andalusia and crossing over Madrid.  The AVE is more expensive than other train options, though all are affordable for most students. Trains are quite, clean and comfortable so you can ride them with ease. • Bus: offer more frequent service and more destinations than trains .

The rates for a taxi can be expensive with taxi cab companies charging a per meter rate for each destination
