How it works
How Our Program & Application Process Works
Now that you’ve decided to go abroad, let’s talk about the next steps. First things first, you won’t be alone! Our team will be there to support you through every step, from application to pre-departure to arrival and your return home. We’ve been doing this for over two decades, so we’ve seen it all. Every new applicant is treated with care and given a personalized program experience.
6 Simple Steps to Your Program Abroad
Do Your Research
Make sure our programs are the right fit for you! Check out our program locations, internship fields, and FAQs. Read reviews from past candidates on GoAbroad or GoOverseas.
Apply Online
Complete our straightforward online application form to start the process. There is no fee to apply, and we complete our qualification within 1-2 business days.
Review Confirmation & First Interview
Once we review your application, qualified candidates will get a link to schedule a free first interview (conducted via Google Meet). If it’s a good fit, you’ll receive your official acceptance and an invite for a second interview.
Second Interview
Once a candidate is accepted, we guarantee their placement abroad. At this time, a $325 USD non-refundable confirmation fee is required prior to the second interview to confirm your place in our program. Then the discussion shifts to pre-departure prep!
We Build Your Program
Each Adelante Abroad candidate is assessed and has their program curated individually. A candidate’s age, field of study, past work experience, current skill set, program length, and language level are all taken into account to personalize their experience. Once we send your file to our Country Directors, they build your individual program: a guaranteed, contracted internship placement, or university matriculation, then housing, classes, and airport pickup.
You Do Your Part
While we set up your program, it’s the perfect time to finalize logistics. Look at purchasing plane tickets to your program destination, confirm any visa requirements as soon as possible, continue to research your new city, start a crowdfunding campaign, and ramp up your Spanish through self-study if needed. Then start packing!

What’s Included in the Program
Customized Service
As long proven International Internship Specialists, we emphasize getting to know each of our candidates for an optimum placement abroad. Couple that with well-established international contacts and industry-wide record-low staff turnover, you can rest assured you are in good hands.
Affordable Programs
Both our Internship Abroad and Study Abroad Programs are the cheapest you’ll find, period. Sometimes, we are literally 100% less than a competitor program. Go check, it is easy to confirm.
Central Accommodations
Stay in a private room within a shared city apartment, often with other Adelante candidates, locals, or international students. Some programs offer dorms or homestays with local families. You can even bring a friend to live with you!
Spanish Language Courses
Your program includes 2 weeks of intensive Spanish and orientation (for Spanish-speaking locations). Study Abroad programs also include 2–5 courses, depending on the term.
Academic Credit
Semester Study Abroad programs offer sealed, transferable transcripts upon completion. Most Intern Abroad candidates also earn credit, with Adelante assisting students in meeting their university’s requirements for contact hours.
