Today the University is attended by over 30,000 students and is composed of over 20 specialized schools with campuses in four cities throughout the autonomous community of Castilla y León: Valladolid, Palencia, Soria and Segovia.
The University’s more than 700 years of history make it one of the world’s oldest institutions of higher learning. Its solid tradition and strong commitment to quality are a few of the guarantees the University is proud to offer its foreign students from across the world. The Language Center (Centro de Idiomas), where Spanish courses are held, calls the Valladolid campus home; the University’s nucleus, where all the most modern buildings are located.
The campus lies in the center of Valladolid next to the city’s beautiful cathedral, surrounded by rich culture and history. The university’s façade and courtyard stand as breathtaking examples of Baroque art in and of themselves. Thanks to the central location of the Language Center within the University and the campus within Valladolid, foreign students quickly find themselves at one with the intense, enjoyable university and city life.
