CAPA Buenos Aires Program
Description
The CAPA Buenos Aires Program offers students an opportunity to engage with Latin American culture and either start or continue to study Spanish. This program offers Beginner to Advanced Spanish as well as a range of courses taught in English. Housed at Universidad Austral, a private university in central Buenos Aires, CAPA students take courses with Argentine and other international students.
CAPA's Global Cities program provides multiple pathways for you to analyze and explore Buenos Aires. CAPA's MyEducation Program, a series of cultural events centered around key themes, enables you to tailor your involvement in the city around your chosen interests and learning-style preferences. The program presents opportunities for you to engage with the city on an individual basis, to create a well-rounded and in-depth understanding of it cultural heritage, contemporary realities, and current affairs.
Students stay in single homestays during the program, and breakfast and dinner are included daily. This living environment allows you to practice your Spanish outside the classroom and to learn more about the local culture.
