Program Overview

Program Description:
The university at Albany has an exchange partnership with the Universidad del Salvador in Buenos Aires, Argentina. This program is only offered during the academic year, and is for Advanced/Fluent Speakers. Universidad del Salvador operates on a tradition of academic excellence offering coursework to international students with a high level of Spanish language fluency. Immersion into regular classes with degree seeking students will allow international Students to improve their knowledge and understanding of local and regional affairs, to concentrating on Latin American arts, culture, history, politics, Spanish business, and literature. Students will find USAL to be a perfect match to suit and achieve their academic goals within these areas. Since Argentina is located below the equator, their seasons are opposite from ours and perhaps more importantly, their academic year begins in our spring and ends in our fall. For students interested in participating in our fall semester, the program runs from late July to early November. For students wishing to participate in our spring semester, the program begins in April and runs through the end of July.

All international students attend a two-day mandatory orientation before beginning classes. A full staff is also designated to international students and is available for academic and personal counseling. Outside of the International Office, students are invited to participate in all sports practiced at USAL. Both intercollegiate and non-competitive sport activities are open to exchange students.
Setting Description:
Buenos Aires was recreated at the end of the 19th century after their great success in the "beef boom" of the 1880s. The once Hispanic, colonial buildings were leveled and replaced with the now striking architecture which echoes the image of Paris. With 18,000 students, enrolled in 74 undergraduate and 81 graduate degrees, Universidad del Salvador is located in the heart of Buenos Aires cultural and business center.
