Words From Our Campus Director

Elisa Álvarez

Madrid Campus Director

Welcome to Schiller Madrid and to this incredible city full of energy and opportunities! University life is much more than attending classes; your academic journey extends far beyond the classroom. I encourage you to take full advantage of everything Schiller and Madrid have to offer: get involved, join events, and connect with your fellow students.

Before You Arrive in Madrid

Visa Information

All students must be legally residing in Spain. The Spanish government asks that you identify yourself and demonstrate your right to be in the country.

However, obtaining a Spanish student visa is straightforward and simple if you follow our guide.

Student Life

Madrid is home to a thriving international community, attracting students from all over the world. In 2023-24, the city hosted over 70,000 international students, offering a rich cultural experience and a diverse environment for personal and academic growth.

As a student in Madrid, you’ll be part of a dynamic network that encourages cross-cultural exchange, personal development, and lifelong friendships.

Transportation and Accessibility

Madrid’s extensive and well-connected public transportation system makes getting around the city easy and efficient.

Metro - The Madrid Metro is one of the largest and most reliable in Europe, with over 300 stations spanning the city and its suburbs.
Buses - In addition to the metro, Madrid has a wide range of buses (including electric buses) that offer accessible routes to all corners of the city.
Electric Bicycles - The Bicimad bike-sharing program features nearly 258 docking stations and over 3,000 fully electric bicycles.

Healthcare and Health Insurance

All students are required to carry their own health care insurance and accident insurance. Coverage is required from the date of departure from their country of residence until their return.

The coverage must meet the requirements established by the Spanish government and the Spanish consulate. E.U. nationals may use the Spanish Seguridad Social through agreements with their social security services at home.

Accommodation

There are many ways international students in Madrid can rent a room. In a co-living space or residence, you will be able to have your own room or share with someone. Amenities are usually provided and shared with your neighbors on the same floor (bathroom, laundry room, kitchen). Below are several renowned companies that offer co-living in Madrid:

The Madrid Campus also works with CityLife, an international community that helps you prepare for your trip, settle in smoothly and enjoy your time in Spain to the fullest.
