Latin America is an exciting study abroad destination where you’ll immerse yourself into a new culture, country and language. Although most countries teach in Spanish, a number of our partner universities in Mexico do teach in English.
Studying and living in Latin America is significantly different to what you’ll be used to at Essex, so it’s useful (and really important) to get to grips with how things work in these different countries if you’re thinking about including a Latin American University in your year abroad application.
We’ll discuss:
- Expectations vs. Reality
- Visa and insurance details
- Costs related to studying in Latin America
- Accommodation
- Education systems
- Funding opportunities
- Term dates & how the academic year works
- Travel opportunities
- Universities we’re partnered with in that region
- Q&A
We’ll also be joined by students who studied abroad in Latin America last year and will give you an honest insight into their time abroad.
Book your place on this session as soon as possible – there are limited spaces.
