DELE preparation courses in Spain 2027: prices and start dates at 12 schools

Updated 18 October 2026 · Prices from each school's official 2027 price list
In 2027, a 4-week DELE preparation course in Spain costs between €480 (part-time, 10 lessons a week) and €1,525 at the official prices of the 12 schools in 8 cities that have already sent us their 2027 price lists; the cheapest full-time option (15 hours a week or more) costs €695 at Colegio de España. Below: every DELE course with its durations and 2027 start dates, SIELE preparation, and how to choose.
DELE or SIELE?
Both are official exams of the Instituto Cervantes. The DELE is a diploma for one level (A1 to C2) that you pass or fail, it is held on a few set dates a year and it does not expire. The SIELE is taken on a computer, gives a score that places you on a level, can be booked on many more dates and is valid for five years. If you need Spanish for a university, a job or nationality, check which one they ask for before choosing the course.

DELE preparation in Barcelona
Many people look for DELE courses in Barcelona. Of the Barcelona schools that have sent us their 2027 prices so far, Enforex offers SIELE preparation (€995 for 4 weeks) but not a specific DELE course. If you want a DELE course in Barcelona, see the Barcelona schools and ask us for a quote: we check with the schools and reply within 24–48 hours. If the city is not essential, the courses above in Valencia, Madrid or Andalusia have fixed 2027 dates.
How to choose (and pay less)
- If you already have a good level, a part-time course is enough: CLIC in Malaga or Seville (€480 for 4 weeks, 10 lessons a week) or the Instituto Mediterráneo Sol in Granada (€840).
- Choose a course that ends just before the exam session you want: the fixed start dates in the table are set for that.
- For high levels (C1, C2) you may need more than a month: Formex in Malaga offers its DELE course from 4 weeks (€1,320) to 12 weeks (€3,960) or longer.
- Book with LanguageBookings: you get our discount on the course, you pay nothing upfront (only the deposit is authorised on your card and charged when the school confirms; you pay the rest to the school) and if you find the same course cheaper under the same conditions, we match the price.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a DELE preparation course cost?
In Spain, between €480 and €1,525 for 4 weeks at the 2027 prices on this page, depending on the hours per week. The exam fee is paid separately.
Is the exam included in the course?
Not in the DELE courses: you register and pay for the exam with an Instituto Cervantes exam centre. Hispania's SIELE courses in Valencia do include the exam.
How long should I prepare?
It depends on your current level and the level you are aiming for. Most courses on this page last 2 to 8 weeks. When you book, tell us your level and the exam you want: the school places you after a level test.
Do I have to pay the whole course when I book?
No. When you book, only the deposit, which is part of the course price, is authorised on your card. If the school accepts the booking, the deposit is charged and we send you the details to pay the rest directly to the school; if not, nothing is charged.
Are these prices final?
They are the schools' official 2027 prices as they were in our system on 17 October 2026. The school confirms the price when it accepts the booking; there may be summer supplements and optional extras (books, exams, transfers).
