Learn to Speak and Understand Spanish
My husband would like to study spanish in Spain but does not know which college and which town to choose. We would like to move to Spain from the US in about a year with our two little children. We are looking for an affordable place to live and also a college that is affiliated with the University of Michigan if there's one. Please help.

I studied at the Universidad de Salamanca for one semester. This is known for being where some of the "purest Castillian is spoken", and is also one of the top universities in the world. There are Spanish for foreigners courses there, but normally you have this on the side of other subjects. I did some English Linguistics courses (which are taught in English) as well as courses given in Spanish.
Another option is the Universidad de Granada. I’ve known people who have gone to study at this university and it is known for its languages faculty. I personally don’t have any experience, apart from that the accent there *can* be more difficult to understand as they have an Andalusian accent (mainly they don’t pronounce the letter "s", but I’d do some more indepth research on it if I were you).
Anywhere in Spain, except the big cities Madrid and Barcelona, is really affordable, so don’t worry too much about that.
The University of Michigan had a link to which gives about studying in Spain. I don’t know if the centres/universities they list have some kind of link with them or not. Maybe try sending an email to find out.

Colleges are not affiliated with each other. To study Spanish, the best way to go is ot a University, but a language school. A University abroad is just like a University here, you take classes that you have certain days a week, etc, and you learn a similar amount. At a language school you just study the language for 6-8 hours a day. This is by far the best way to learn any language, and you are totally immersed. They are also very reasonably priced. Barcelona is nice, but does not actually speak Spanish, so you want somewhere else. You can just do a Google search for language schools in Spain, big cities will have many.
