Description
Since 1950, IES has been building quality study abroad programs and introducing U.S. students to new places, studies, and ways of thinking. A non-profit educational organization, IES offers high academic standards and extensive financial aid in almost 30 programs throughout the world.
Founded by conquistadors in 1541, today Santiago is a modern metropolis, one that you will come to know for its lively neighborhoods and unique charm. A Spanish-immersion program, the IES Abroad Santiago Program will help you improve your language skills and promotes immersion through enrollment at local partner universities and homestay living. Also offered are internship and service learning placements, field trips, and extra-curricular activities through which you will have the opportunity to meet Chilean and international students alike.
