Eligibility - Madrid, Spain

The Madrid, Spain study abroad program is open to law students, lawyers, and business professionals interested in studying abroad in Spain. Law students and lawyers should have an active interest in international business law and/or public international law in order to make the most of this exciting academic experience.

All students must have successfully completed one academic year and be in good academic standing to be eligible for study abroad.  All non-Stetson students must submit an official law school transcript and a letter of good standing to Stetson's Office of International Programs.  Enrollment will be limited to thirty (30) students, and it is estimated that thirty (30) students will enroll.

Foreign Law Students are Welcome to Participate

Law students from foreign law schools are also eligible and invited to enroll in the program. Historically, only a few foreign law students have registered for the program; we, therefore, anticipate that only a small number of foreign law students will attend and estimate no more than two individuals may participate in the program. It is anticipated that these students will all be from the host country in which the program is located.

Applicants with Special Needs

Applicants with disabilities or other special needs should contact the Office of International Programs at Stetson in advance to discuss arrangements. Madrid is a very old city that does not meet U.S. standards for accommodations. However, Stetson will make every effort to reasonably accommodate the special needs of applicants.

Students Participating in 2024

Twenty-one (21) students participated in the Madrid program during the summer of 2024. Of the twenty-one total students who participated, two (2) students were from Stetson; six (6) students were from other U.S. law schools; and thirteen (13) students were from Comillas Universidad Pontificia in Madrid.
