Intensive Language Program
Student Life
Interaction with locals and other international students is key to a successful study abroad experience. Many campus activities, e.g., Noche Internacional, showcase UB's strong international student program. Joining a student club or sports team is a great way to meet local students--soccer, running and yoga are just a few options. Attending concerts, trying the tango, or spending a lazy Sunday afternoon picking through the colorful streets and flea market of San Telmo are just a few of the possibilities. There's so much to discover in and around Buenos Aires - one can even visit neighboring Uruguay for the day!

Housing
Students at UB have the option to participate in a homestay or to stay in a residence hall or student apartment. Additionally, if a participating student has friends or family in the area they would like to stay with, they can make the choice to opt out of UB housing arrangements.
Students are provided lodging with an Argentine host family, which allow students to further develop their language skills outside of a classroom setting and increase their understanding of modern Argentine culture. The assigned host family is likely to live within easy reach of the university in a pleasant, secure neighborhood; the daily commute will be no more than a short bus ride or a reasonable walk. The home might be found in a century-old heritage structure or a contemporary apartment building. The program fee includes a private room with two meals per day (breakfast and dinner).

“The CCIS program in Argentina changed my life.”
“I feel that my Spanish increased exponentially and the program really helped me to not only learn, but fall in love with the language.”
Study intensive Spanish, learn the language and culture, or if you're proficient in Spanish, take classes in the language at the University's regular academic departments.
