Request informationArgentina
Argentina is known worldwide for tango and gauchos, but also for its natural wonders — from the northern deserts to the Andes, from the Iguazú Falls to the vast, empty landscapes of Patagonia.
Art, architecture, literature and lifestyle are shaped by European influence, yet a fervent cultural climate has produced authors of international standing. The best-known expression of popular culture is tango, which has captured romantics the world over, while football has become a national obsession. You'll find a sociable, welcoming people who live for the day and make you feel at home straight away.
The school system
The Argentine school system is democratic and secular. The school year starts in February and ends in December; international students can join at intermediate points depending on the programme chosen.
Info

What they say about us
“One of the most important things I learned as an exchange student is to be more sure of myself. At first I barely spoke, even though I wanted to, because I was afraid people would laugh at my pronunciation. Then I told myself — enough. My host family had endless patience with me and taught me new words every day.”
