We are the #1 study abroad organization in Argentina. GIC Argentina is the favorite choice for people coming to study abroad, volunteer abroad or intern in Argentina for a lot of reasons.

One of the main reasons GIC Argentina is popular is that we specialize in programs at universities. We've found that our students really appreciate being part of the university experience vs. learning in a room in an office building or residence. Our students learn at top universities and have the ability to make friends with Argentinean students, as well as have access to all the facilities that a university has to offer. If you have finished your university education already - don't worry - though half of our program participants are under 25, the other half are in the 25-35 age range.

Second, the experience that GIC Argentina provides to our participants goes beyond classroom learning, and beyond typical cultural activities. We have a unique calendar of trips and lectures that have a social conscience angle to them - and that give a face to the real Argentina. However, our main goal is to connect our students with locals. We hope to pull students away from other foreign students for at least part of their time here and get them connected with Argentinean friends early in the program.

One of the best feelings I get is when I hear from one of our students a long time after their program and they are still in touch with Argentinean friends. It's very common for our program participants to come back to visit friends they made while in Argentina. To me, these international friendships are the ultimate cultural experience!
