Study Abroad: Mexico . San Andreas . Internships

Church FacadeWellesley operates in a body-for-body exchange program with the Universidad de San Andres in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The university is a modern, small university located in the town of Victoria on the shores of the Rio de la Plata. Classes are normally in Spanish, although professors, staff and students have an excellent command of English. Students may attend for a semester or a year.

The Foreign Student Office at the University arranges housing with an Argentine family and organizes trips and programs around Argentina. Students will be enrolled in four courses per semester. Medical coverage is provided with Cemic, an Argentine health maintenance program. Their fall semester runs from the beginning of March to the first week of July; their spring semester runs from the beginning of August to the first week of December. Students should arrive two weeks earlier than the above dates for orientation to the university and to Argentina.

Wellesley financial aid packages will be adjusted to cover the work-study portion of the Wellesley grant. Transportation costs to and from Argentina are not included in your financial aid package and must be arranged yourself. Students chosen for the exchange will be notified by the Study Abroad Office. Proposals, leave of absence forms, and course of study forms are required.
