A Guide to High School Programs Abroad in Argentina

Locations

Argentina makes up most of the southernmost part of South America. Despite being the second-largest country in the continent (with programs scattered throughout), the majority of high school programs in Argentina can be found in the nation’s capital city of Buenos Aires.

Buenos Aires. With all the perks of city life complemented by a mild climate year-round and nearby must-see natural wonders, it’s no wonder students with varying interests choose Buenos Aires for their high school program abroad. Students will enjoy the convenience of modern amenities balanced effortlessly with historic structures, and find plenty of opportunities to practice their Spanish, whether browsing an upscale boutique or enjoying a traditional asado (barbecue) with new friends.  

Córdoba. Located in the geographical center of the country, Córdoba is the country’s second most important city and an excellent destination for high school programs in Argentina. With a strong colonial history and increasingly relevant economy, Córdoba has much to offer high school students. 

Mendoza. High school students who desire a smaller and slightly more laid-back lifestyle will love life in Mendoza. Students may find themselves spending their spare time strolling the city’s five central plazas, exploring the infamous vineyards, or getting their adrenaline fix via rafting or skiing in the nearby Andes.

Two life-changing months!

It was an incredible experience; I not only learned a ton of Spanish, I also had an eye opening experience that taught me to think about the world differently. As I plan to become a doctor, I felt it would help me understand patients from different walks of life better. Having the experience of living in a foreign country without knowing what to expect and without speaking enough of the language, I am able to relate to immigrants better because I have experience rather than an idea of what it means to immigrate. Going in high school is also beneficial because you get to see how people grow up somewhere else, and you form lifelong relationships with those around you!
