I definitely recommend NYU in Buenos Aires. Argentina is an amazing beautiful country and you're able to travel to neighboring countries, like Chile, Brazil, Uruguay, and Bolivia. The staff is super friendly and the classes help you immerse into the culture.

Buenos Aires is an incredibly vibrant city...

Buenos Aires is an incredibly vibrant city and I have been having an amazing time. NYU in Buenos Aires is a very new program so they are still figuring out all the kinks. Since it is new, they don't have a variety of classes which may be disappointing for some people, especially those who are limited to English. Unlike other abroad programs, they have no affiliation with local universities and you can only take classes at the center. The attendance policy is also very strict here so you can't miss any classes. Classes are generally not that demanding work wise. Classes are only Monday-Thursday and are one hour and thirty minutes long. The people who run the program are very nice and will help you out with whatever you need. The social scene here is fantastic and you can always find people who are going out. Generally, most students tend to limit their nights out to the weekends. I would highly recommend homestays over the dorms because it helps people further immerse themselves in the culture. BA is a fantastic place but if you are not an independent person this program is not for you.
