Programs ask us to contact you themselves to share their prices and what's included, as tuition prices can change depending on which university you attend and international prices change quickly. This program will get back to you in the next 10 days.
We'll pass this standard application to the program. They can help you to continue the application process from there.

ASA takes care of everything for you so that all you have to worry about is improving your Spanish, doing well in your classes, and having a good time! With housing, meals, health insurance, excursions, laundry, tutoring, tuition, academic credits and much more included in the cost of the program, we strive to make your experience in Buenos Aires the best time of your life. Located in the quiet residential area of Belgrano, the university was established in 1964 and now enrolls over 13,500 students, including 2,000 international students. The university is divided into 13 different schools that offer 33 different undergraduate and 20 graduate majors.
ASA encourages all students to participate in the one-month intensive Spanish language program that is offered before the regular semester courses begin. This intensive program accomplishes two very important goals that will help any student maximize his or her time in Buenos Aires. It will not only earn students 6 semester credits, but it will also help prepare you for life in a Spanish-speaking city, making for a smoother transition into Argentine culture and improved Spanish communication skills.

Overall an incredible experience. Gaby, the site director, was amazing and my host family was better than could ever be imagined. The university was subpar, mainly just not challenging and disorganized, but it was nice to be surrounded by so many other study abroad students. I went down knowing no spanish and left conversational, and that opportunity was really cool. After interacting with many of the other students who were a part of other study... Read more
This was a really well-rounded experience that broadened my understanding of another culture and geography. The people were fantastic, the coordinator (Gabby) was excellent and the school was engaging without being suffocating. Read more
I loved, LOVED, my time in Buenos Aires and I loved my program (ASA). They were very thorough about everything but I still had my independence to immerse myself into the culture on my own. I had a great living situation and was able to travel a lot due to the dates of the program, the trips already included, and my schedule at school. UB wasn't academically challenging but I didn't go to Buenos Aires for that. I went to live and learn about Argen... Read more
I couldn't be happier with my time in Buenos Aires through ASA. The group of students was under 10 which made for a very personalized experience with ASA, the trips and excursions were awesome, and Gaby was incredible. My host family was the sweetest family ever and the people I lived with were awesome. Went down knowing no spanish and left with a passable amount of spanish speaking ability. Well worth it.

I had a great time, Gabriela was super helpful. My host family was incredible as were the other students living in my house. I wasn't crazy about the university, big classes, lots of people. However I learned more spanish from the immersion than I ever could have in classes. Read more
I had a great time with ASA, before leaving all my questions were answered (and I had a million). They are easy to reach and helpful in the states. In BA, our program director was incredible! So helpful and always available to help out with anything, literally one of the nicest people I have ever met! She is like family. I loved my homestay and got along great with my host mother and sister and everyone in the group was lovely.

I was very please with my experience with ASA. Our programs was small which allowed us to get to know eachother well. The on site director was most amazing and helpful. Read more
This is a small program which means you get all the attention you deserve. If you want to meet lots of people, you get the opportunity in classes and throughout the city, and the program offers you a chance to make some really good friends throughout the semester. However, a small program is not for everyone and just like when choosing your 2/4 year university, you should take this into consideration. The best thing that ASA gave me was the mos... Read more

Buenos Aires for the most part was a good program. A couple of things though, it is not cheap at all in BA! They are having inflation like crazy and even empanadas on the street were 5 pesos when we got there and 6.5 when I left (And these are the cheap ones) So that is about 6-7 dollars per day for lunch. Clothes and other products are also way more expensive than in the US. So bring more money than they suggest or pick a different program.... Read more
