DELE stands for Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera, or "Spanish as a Foreign Language Diploma". It is the only certificate for non-native Spanish speakers that is officially recognized by the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport. This diploma is of great international value for those who are going to study at a Spanish University and who want to work, or are going to work in a Spanish speaking environment. We advise everyone taking a long term Spanish course to take the DELE examination.
You can follow the DELE preparation courses for the Certificado Inicial (CIE), Diploma Intermedio (DIE) and the most advanced Diploma Superior (DSE) at all the don Quijote schools. Up to today, a very high percentage of our students have succeeded. This does not guarantee that you will successfully pass the official DELE exam, as this always depends upon various circumstances. However, we do guarantee you the high quality of these courses.
The place and time of the course are fully harmonized with the examination dates established by the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport. Because of practical advantages most students take the examination in Spain, although it is also possible to take the examination outside Spain. The examination fees are set each year by the Spanish Ministry, the Instituto Cervantes and each examination center.
Exam and registration fees are not included. Prices range per level from € 85 to € 235.

There is the coastal area with its warm climate and the mountainous regions with a colder climate, where you will find the 3,481 meter Mulhacén, the biggest peak on the peninsula of Spain. The city of Granada is located at the foot of the sierra Nevada mountains. Its unique history gives it an artistic grandeur embracing Moorish palaces and Christian Renaissance treasures.
