Frequently Asked Questions

We update these FAQs based on questions that our students have asked so if you can't find the answer to a question please send us your query using our Contact Us page, so you can help us provide better information for our students.

How long can I stay in Colombia?

When you arrive in Colombia you will normally be given a tourist visa for 60 days. You can however extend this visa twice giving you a total of 180 days, at which time you need to leave the country.

Can I change programs once I have started if I change my mind?

No problem at all. We do ask that you complete the week if you have started it. If you are changing to a program with a different price it is also no problem to use any money you may have already paid and then make up the difference.

What happens after I fill out the Apply Now form on the web site?

You will receive an email straight away confirming your details and one of our staff will contact you in two or three days to see if you have any more questions and take you through the remaining booking process.

I don't speak any Spanish at the moment. Does that matter?

Not at all. Our beginning level classes are designed for students with little or no Spanish at all. We understand it can be a bit daunting arriving in a Spanish speaking country without any of the language. For this reason we can conduct all communication before you arrive in English and we also offer our Greeting services.

Can people from all nationalities apply?

Sure they can, we welcome people from every country on earth, and we do not discriminate based on age, religion, sexual orientation, skin color or any other characteristic..

Nothing was too much trouble for them. I had some concerns about safety and the political situation but what they told me was honest and sensible. It calmed all my fears and sure enough when I got here I found everything safe and sound.
