Spanish immersion program

Live an experience full of cultural learning while you practice the Spanish language.

Immerse yourself in Mexican culture, learn Spanish, stay with local families and interact with students from all over the world.

At arrival, you will take a placement test to determine the level of your Spanish proficiency and be placed in the correct Spanish course.

Classes cover diverse topics, offering you a different approach to Mexican culture and the possibility to experience it fully.

This program integrates unique weekly cultural trips into academic study, including the charming city of Puebla, the lively city of Oaxaca and the grandeur of Mexico City.
