Study Abroad in Chile
What's Included in the ASA Chile Program?


ALL ASA PROGRAMS IN CHILE INCLUDE:


ACADEMIC CREDITS: Students who receive pre-approval from their home institution can transfer the credits they earn in Chile to their home institution. It is possible to earn 12-18 semester credits during the semester program or 6 credits on the summer program.

OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT: At the conclusion of the program, an official transcript from the Universidad de Viņa del Mar will be sent to your home institution.

ON-SITE DIRECTOR: ASA will have an on-site director to help students with any difficulties that they may encounter in Chile.

DAY EXCURSIONS: ASA includes 2 day excursions with each of its Chile programs.

ENTRANCE FEES: ASA covers entrance fees to museums and other sites of interest on all organized excursions.

ROOM & BOARD: Students will live with a Chilean host family, who will provide 3 meals per day and laundry once per week.

TUITION: The cost of each ASA program includes full tuition at the Universidad de Viņa del Mar.

AIRPORT PICK-UP: Group ground transportation is provided from the Santiago (SCL) airport for all students who arrive on the official arrival date, by the designated time. For details on when you should arrive in order to make the airport pick-up for your group, read our FAQs.

MEDICAL INSURANCE: Medical insurance is provided for the official period of the program. There is no deductible.

INTERNET ACCESS: All students will have free Internet access at their host institution. Students are encouraged to bring their laptops.

CELL PHONE: All ASA Chile students receive a pay-as-you-go cell phone to use while they are in Chile. (The cost of all phone calls, text messages, etc. is the responsibility of the student.)

ORIENTATION: About a month before departure, students will receive our pre-departure orientation guide that tells you everything you need to know before you go. ASA also sends parents our Parent Guide to Study Abroad after the student has been accepted. Students will participate in a detailed on-site orientation, upon arrival in their host country.
