Peru: Lima Semester

Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola in Lima

Students may enroll in any of the academic programs offered on the Lima campus, which may include courses in subjects such as Hospitality/Tourism Management, Marketing, Business, Economics, International Business, International Relations, Communications, Culinary Arts and more. Classes may be taken in Spanish or English from March through July and from August through December. Students who wish to enroll in classes instructed in Spanish must be at a high Intermediate/Advanced level of proficiency. Classes have a small number of students, which make them more personalized and interactive. Students will enroll in classes alongside Peruvian students and other international students, making the class a dynamic setting to learn more about Peruvian culture.

Each course is three credits and students are encouraged to enroll in twelve to fifteen credits each semester. In order to be eligible to apply, students must have a minimum GPA of 2.5 and obtain two academic letters of recommendation.
