Barcelona SAE was a fantastic study abroad program to attend. The staff is very attentive and helpful in any circumstance (sick, housing, VISA process, etc.). I took a Spanish course and Food and Culture through SIS and two course at UPF ESCI. I highly recommend considering this program if you want to study abroad in Barcelona!
