Cordoba, Argentina

Córdoba is recognized as a center for arts and learning in Argentina with its many universities, theaters, and museums. Argentina's second largest city and the region's early capital, Córdoba is a bustling educational and commercial center set at the foothills of the Sierra Chica mountain range in northern Argentina. Saint Mary’s College has an affiliation with the Center for Cross-Cultural Study (CC-CS), which offers true cultural immersion experience in Córdoba.

The Córdoba Program offers three enrollment options: summer, semester, and academic year. Students will engage in an exceptional opportunity for semester study at the distinguished Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (UNC). The semester program offers students a variety of courses within a broad spectrum of disciplines. Students enroll in 1-2 integrated courses with Argentine students at UNC and 2-3 courses designed for international students. The summer term consists of a one-month intensive language and culture session at Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (UNC).  In addition to 60 hours of classroom instruction, the summer program includes a home stay, cultural excursions and a three-day trip to Buenos Aires.

Saint Mary’s students wishing to study in Córdoba must have at least a 3.0 GPA as well as a 3.0 (B) average in Spanish at the time of their application.
