Hi there
To answer your questions, that you get the bachelor in a year means you do the study of 4 years under a quicker pace. This is stressing and challenging. Be aware that you still have to the 120 American credits or 240 European credits. Also there is administrative time, process, expedition of degree etc. Which can result in more than 12 months.
If you check the forum and all the sections you will find the names of the most common universities and why they are so. Basically all the information you need is there. It includes a lot of questions you will get along the process of knowing each university, how does it work and what you can study where...
Be aware that the studies of Liberal Studies have a difficult and sometimes impossible translation to the European system. The more similar are what in Spanish is known as "Humanidades" but only when you select such subjects in the liberal arts... which can be difficult sometimes with alternative credits.
The best option to get the most adequate recommendations to your needs is that you fulfill the template.
I am going to tell you in advance that free universities from a Spanish perspective do not exist. There can be some courses very cheap like in Finland or even in Germany (if you go in person), bu you still will have to pay some semester fees, course fees or inscriptions and translations of certifications, courses or degrees and equivalencies (WES or any other NACES member Usually). Once you get your degree you will have to get the degree legalized or follow the Hague convention (convenio de la Haya) and then Validate/recognize it in any other country you want to use it. In Spain this process can take up two years to get the official recognition and cost 200 and something euros. If you want to get a master you can go directly to the university with your degree (no need to go to the Ministry of education /"Ministerio de Educación") in most (but not all) cases.
The better is to fulfill the template and specially your age (since is relevant to some universities and can limit where you can go) and what you want to study. Also do not forget to say if you did your high school in USA or have some kind of English degree (TOEFL or similar).
By English degree I mean English language certification. This is because most universities are going to ask you this or that you do some subjects in english before you can apply.
