Study Abroad Programs in Uruguay

Uruguay, or “The Switzerland of South America,” is a stable and prosperous country compared to its neighbors, making it an ideal place to study abroad. The capital city has picturesque surroundings and the rural areas of Uruguay are covered in diverse and  magical flora, including Ombú trees. Students can explore fields that seem like oceans, coastline filled with wildlife, and incredible hot springs up the Río Uruguay. With an open heart and some minor language skills, any student will fall in love with the inherent goodness and simplicity of the local people and surroundings while studying abroad in Uruguay.

Learned so much more outside of the classroom!

January 17, 2025by: William Cunningham - United StatesProgram: USAC Comparative Studies: Uruguay and Cuba Summer Session
9

This was an experience of a lifetime and USAC did an amazing job with providing me the perfect amount of guidance and freedom to learn about the culture, language, food, etc. I enjoyed being able to compare and contrast Cuba and Uruguay and think this program is once and a lifetime. I learned so much about myself and gained a whole new perspective on life. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience the vastness of Latin American culture.
