Think out of the box

Pro Spanish speaker or total newcomer, lively Latin America beckons.

Looking for a nontraditional study abroad experience? Put Buenos Aires at the top of your list. The energy-filled capital of a country filled with breathtaking terrain, BA’s architecture is full of European influence with a population that represents the world over.  

Its people are known to stand up for social justice and individual freedoms with a lifestyle rich in music, art, theatre, food, and community. Their love for living large shows up from tango to murga and football to polo.  

Our range of programs accommodates a variety of interests and needs, from staying on budget to fast-forwarding Spanish skills to exploring the region’s unique commitment to mental health.  

Whatever you choose, count on us to go the extra mile to make sure you make the most of your time here. From one-on-one check-ins to gatherings with Argentine peers to the thrill of watching a favorite national sport live, you’ll learn what it means to be a porteño or porteña — a port city person — with IFSA.

Did You Know?

  • Argentina has more psychologists per capita than in any other country.
  • Buenos Aires has its own take on Spanish — Rioplatense Spanish or Rioplatense Castilian — born from a mix of Latin American and European immigrants.
  • A murga is a group of dancers, moving to the rhythm of large drums — one example of BA’s African heritage.
