The Syracuse University Madrid Program is a homestay program. You will be expected to abide by the norms SU-Madrid has established for housing students in Spanish households. These norms will be discussed during orientation and include such issues as courtesies, privileges and expectations with regard to your behavior, use of telephone, shower, laundry, meals, etc.

Please be advised, most of our housing is located some distance away from our school facilities. Like most Madrid residents who live in the city, students will have a 20-35 minute commute by public transportation.

Opting Out of SU Living Arrangements: Syracuse University Abroad considers homestays an integral part of our program and a curricular necessity. Students will be excused from our host housing under extraordinary circumstances only. If you wish to live independently, you will need to submit a letter from your parent or guardian as well as a letter from the study abroad office at your home college approving your choice for independent housing. You must have compelling reasons for wishing to live independently. If you check the box below, we will send you a letter with more details on this option.

Most students in Syracuse/Madrid housing will be placed two to a household. If you have a friend in the program with whom you would like to be placed, please indicate your friend’s name.

If you know of Syracuse/Madrid housing recommended by former students and would like to be placed there, please indicate the host name and address.
