IFSA - Summer in Buenos Aires

Spend your summer studying in the dynamic culture of Argentina, while living in the distinct urban sophistication of Buenos Aires. Museums, opera, and cinemas mix comfortably with the sounds of soccer, Zumba, and Tai Chi in the city's welcoming plazas and parks. Dive into English or Spanish classes in psychology, economics, literature, Spanish language, or human rights.

You can also extend your studies by enrolling in both Session 1 and Session 2.
