Woud pick the same place, because of the terrasse, and because it's a house for 6 with 5 bathrooms. But if you're willing to make international friends, it's a very french house, I wouldn't recommend it in this case.

Rabieta, UpTown, Kika

Creativity and Business, Gestion por competencias, comunicacion estrategica. Would not recommend "Inocavion en Marketing".

Perfect, Classes end very early (20 of november), you choose your classes, days of classes, you can choose wichever course you want to take. The "difficult" part came from my home university, allowing us to follow economics courses only... The registration is a bit long but it's ok. Campus situated in Puerto Madero (= les quais) really nice.

Really easy to go to : Iguazu, Bariloche, but if you can, explore Bolivia, Brasil, Chile too, they're accessible.

BA is safe!! I was very scared before arriving, but it is actually pretty okay to walk alone on the street, preferly not at night, but it's nothing like Sao Paulo or else. Do not waste money buying a SUBE card (public transport), you can just do Apple Pay everywhere.

Plan your travels at the moment you have all your exam dates, travel every 2 weeks if you can, and plan it very early because time flies.

If you come to Buenos Aires, do not stay at this accommodation. It was recommended to me by people from my school, but I do not recommend it at all. First, I found out only five days before my departure that my room had been listed on Airbnb and wouldn’t be available when I arrived. I had to stay for ten days in a room that wasn’t mine. Then, when I finally got my room, it was located right next to the kitchen. The problem was that there were parties or long conversations in the kitchen almost every night, so it was impossible to sleep — the noise kept waking me up. Finally, after finding out that there were insects in the house, I decided to leave. It’s true that I felt a bit more lonely afterwards, but at least I could sleep peacefully.

There are lots of bars and restaurants in Buenos Aires, so it’s easy to go out with friends — especially in Palermo (around Plaza Serrano, where there are plenty of bars). However, if you come alone, don’t be afraid to socialize — on social media, at school, and so on — otherwise, the experience can be very different.

I really loved the communication class (the tutorial part): it was truly connected to real communication, using both Argentine and international examples (the World Cup, concerts, singers, etc.). Thanks to this class, I had the opportunity to be in the audience of The Voice Argentina — it was a wonderful experience.

The campus is beautiful and very large — it was perfect for this semester.

From Buenos Aires, you can take many trips and discover a wide variety of landscapes. If you’re looking for the sea, Rio is a beautiful destination. If you prefer the desert, Salta is perfect, and if you’re into breathtaking places, Patagonia and Iguazú are absolutely stunning.

The cost of living has increased a lot due to inflation, although it’s still lower than in Europe. As for transportation, it’s the least enjoyable part: buses don’t have fixed schedules — they can come every five minutes or only once an hour — and sometimes they don’t even stop at your station. There are also few metro lines, so you need to plan your bus trips well in advance.

La maison est vraiment grande et on est seulement 4/5. Il y a une grande télé dans un salon à l'étage du bas. Le propriétaire est très gentil et sa mère passe une fois par semaine pour faire le ménage, même dans nos chambres si on a envie. Cependant, il n'y a pas de double vitrage et j'avais une chambre qui donnait sur la rue donc c'était compliqué avec le bruit et du coup il faisait frais mais heureusement le propriétaire a directement ramené un chauffage.

Pour les internationaux, la meilleure chose à faire est de s'abonner au groupe insta : bais_argentina. Ils organisent plein d'évènements, plein de sorties et c'est la que j'ai rencontré mes amis argentines ! L'ambiance est vraiment cool et c'est super diversifié

Les cours sont quand mêmes exigeants donc il faut être assez présent en classe. J'ai aimé tous mes cours en général, et c'était vraiment intéressant. Les profs sont assez compréhensifs sur le fait qu'on ne vienne pas d'ici et sont prêts à nous aider. Juste je vous recommande pas le cours de marketing de JP Baldomar parce qu'il était pas du tout compréhensif et même les argentins avaient du mal à suivre le cours. Il y a beaucoup de travail en groupe et de rendus dans son cours en plus.

Le campus est sympa mais vraiment grand et ca peut être compliqué de se repérer au début, il est accès facile d'accès, le métro est juste devant. Il y a beaucoup de choix de cours dans tous les domaines et c'est à nous de façonner notre emploi du temps !

Y'a plusieurs petites villes autour de BA qui sont sympas à faire, notamment Tigre que tout le monde adore faire. Personnellement, j'ai fait Mendoza et Iguazu et j'ai adore les deux voyages. Après c'est assez cher donc prévoyez un bon budget pour voyager plus !

Le taux de change varie très souvent donc c'est compliqué de donner des idées sur les prix. Mais en général le bus n'est pas du tout cher, le métro coute moins cher avec notre carte bancaire qu'avec la carte de transport argentine. Je vous conseille de retirer de l'argent pour payer, il y a beaucoup d'endroit où ils ne prennent la carte et souvent il y a une réduction de 10 à 20% si on paye en espèces. J'ai également un compte tiktok sur lequel j'ai donné des petits tips sur la vie en Argentine, n'hésitez pas à allez voir ! (thya.972)

Je vous conseille vraiment l'Argentine c'est un super beau pays et si vous hésitez à y aller en tant que femme noire, franchement je parle de mon point de vue mais j'ai eu aucun souci avec ca !

La maison en elle-même n’est pas top, mais elle est fonctionnelle. Le contact en question s’occupe de plusieurs colocations, donc il y a d’autres biens disponibles. Par contre, la localisation est parfaite : à 10 minutes à pied de la Plaza Serrano et dans le quartier où se trouvent la plupart des étudiants en échange.

First I rent a apprtment on Airbnb platform, teh neighborhood was insecure and not very attractive. Then I moved to Recoleta, I loved this place.

Go the avant garden (bar/club)/ rabieta on Wednesdays /palermo neighborhood

Oratoria y imagen; marketing digital

The university enjoys a strong reputation and is well ranked worldwide. The infrastructures are adequate and functional. There are occasional student protests. Professors are approachable, welcoming, and supportive. Campus life is limited, which could be improved.

European vibes Easy to travel around — by bus or by plane, with amazing destinations such as Patagonia, Salta, Iguazú, Mar del Plata, and even Uruguay, Chili,Bresil, Bolivie close by Like anywhere in Latin America, you need to be careful I highly recommend it, it’s far from Europe (about 14 hours by plane), which gives you the time to truly enjoy the country (5 times bigger than France)

Rich culture: asado, mate, football, and Argentinians are very welcoming Lovely spots in the city, especially in Palermo, Recoleta, or along the Río Tigre Transportation is convenient: Uber is very cheap, and buses are easy to use and available everywhere

Yes, I recommend it for its location (close to shops, bars, restaurants and the university, about 20 minutes by bus). The rooms are large and in good condition. However, the bathroom is not very modern and clean, but it does the job very well (it is as shown in the photos). The best thing about the house is that it has a very large living room and a rooftop, which is great for entertaining and having aperitifs/evenings. The owner never complained about the evenings and other activities where we invited people to our home. However, she can sometimes be unpleasant on certain points, such as welcoming guests (if someone stays more than one night, they have to pay €10 per night, even if it's someone from your family who comes to visit you). Finally, it's a shared house with 11 other people, so you obviously have to like living in a community and know how to compromise. For my part, everything went very well and I became friends with my roommates and I think it's a good way to integrate and discover the city together!

Bars: Le Temple (cheap pints during happy hour are always nice) otherwise Plazo Serrano is a square with lots of nice and cheap bars. In terms of nightclubs, it all depends on your musical tastes if you like house music but remix Latin version Le Mision is nice especially on Saturday nights. Then during the week you can go to Avant Garten on Wednesdays/Thursdays. If you like techno there are quite a few nice clubs like the Under Club, La Biblioteca. Then there are also clubs with more commercial international music like Le Get, Le Moscov

I chose 4 subjects: digital marketing = I recommend it because it is a fairly easy subject to validate, however you have to be present at all the classes and point using a QR code so if you ever decide to go on a trip you have to be careful not to miss the QR code. Then I took public administration = it is the simplest subject I had, it is very easy to validate because the 2 partials are remote and you only have to submit one file per group at the end of the semester. Then I chose PME management, it is an easy course to validate as well as project management where you have to submit a file on a business proposal that would work in Argentina. However, one of the two professors is not the most friendly and quite strict. Finally, I took a negotiation course, it is the only subject where I went to resits. The first partial was quite simple but the second a little harder. However, I think that it is an easy subject to validate too, it must be said that I had not revised much either.

The university is not great, it is quite dilapidated and does not offer any sports activities close to the university (all the infrastructure is far away). You have to pay a tax of 200 dollars or the equivalent in euros upon arrival so you have to remember to bring euros from France before leaving. The advantage of being in a public university is that we chose our courses so that we only had face-to-face classes on Mondays which allowed us to easily travel in Argentina and the surrounding area. Since I did not leave for university it did not bother me, I wanted to learn the language and discover Latin America more. If you want to enrich yourself with the help of courses I am not sure that this is the right option.

The advantage of being in a capital city is that you can travel easily and cheaply. If you're leaving like me for the start of your semester in March, I advise you to do the Rio carnival before starting your semester and if you can, stay a little longer to travel to Brazil. If you book early, a plane ticket to Rio and Buenos Aires won't cost you that much (I paid around €100). Then, you absolutely have to go to Patagonia at the start of your semester because after that it gets really cold. To finish, my best experience will remain my 10-day road trip to Salta and its surroundings, if ever I have a complete itinerary that I can share and which is really complete.

The bus is really cheap and it allows you to easily get around almost anywhere in the city. The safest place to stay is Palermo if you are not reassured by the idea of ​​​​being in Latin America. In general, Buenos Aires is a fairly safe city, I have never had any problems apart from cases of phone theft which you have to be careful of. Regarding the cost of living, it is very expensive unlike other Latin American countries, it is still cheaper than in Europe but personally I was quite surprised but in a negative way.

Yes met other exchange students and was fun to be all together in a group

Clubbing. Asado on the streets or hosting or going to friends house. Travelling

The English courses are the easiest but it’s harder to meet Argentinians

Campus was cool. Good uni but could tell it’s a private one. Big terrace and garden for lunch, breaks and socialising. Bus stops right there

Patagonia. Iguazu. Mendoza. Salta. Uruguay.

Cost of living is getting much higher. Busses work but calculate extra time because they are slow and sometimes have to wait a while. Ubers are very safe and cheap

yess!!! you could always fall on having a weirdo as a roomate but its also part of the experience! but i had an amazing experience, no weirdos

chacarita and almagro are a great neighborhood to go to for nice bars. clubs it depends what kind of music you like, but something a bit more underground; dune park

culture of technology: ia, robots and algorithms - the teacher is AMAZING, the content is so interesting!!! loved it

campus was super nice! registration super easy!! just MAKE SURE you have the TIE24 online visa before arriving, becuase the university requires it and its hell to get it once you are in argentina

brasil!!! chile!!! bolivia and peru!!!! ALL OF ARGENTINA

public transport is really bad but you quickly get used to it but it is quite fustrating. the city is HUGE the locals are the nicest people on this whole planet

if you can do a full year of exchange, DO IT! you will not regret it.

I lived in a student home called 'Palo Alto student home' located in the center of palermo. Had a great terrace, patio, large rooms and great location. The kitchen had few to offer but worth the sacrifice of the amazing housing overall. With it being cleaned twice a week (twice the house, once your room) it was perfectly hygiene.

Trash (Thursday's), Bomba del Tiempo (Mondays), Jet, CroBar, Post Street Bar, Uptown, walk through Boca, mercado san telmo.

Would highly recommend 'la cultura de negocios'. Makes you understand where the 'respect' of financial analysts and business consultants comes from.

The location was a bit far away but amazingly organised. The uni guides you through every step regarding visa and helps you find housing if necessary. The only drawback was its location.

You can travel a lot from buenos aires whether it be nationally like Mendoza, Patagonia, Calafate or a small trip to Tigre or internationally with Peru, Chile, Brazil not being too far away. Similarly you can take the ferry and do a day trip to Uruguay which is amazing.

Rainy and cold winters (in august), very safe, highly fluctuation prices (can be very expensive or very affordable), lovely people, highly social culture. AMAZING CITY!!

Il was living with my roomates and it was awesome

I advise you to try the bars located at plaza serrano and to try a lot of nights clubs like the Bali, the biblioteca, garden… etc. The night Life in buenos was awesome.

I advise you to takes courses like : administration del turismo, administration publica, oratoria. These courses were really easy to succed.

The campus was quite good, not a lot of accommodations but really suficient. I advise you to make your DNI on site, it’s really less cheaper than doing the registration in France and Alexia the students echange secretary will be really helpfull for that task. The courses were not too hard but you have to know that the accent there is a bit harder to understand than the spanish accent wich could be complicated at the beginning for someone.

On this side it was awesome. You can travel to the bresil (Rio, isla grande), salta, patagonia, Mendoza, iguazu, Ushuaia for prices really affordable. I advise you to do the brasil absolutely and the Patagonia.

The city is beautiful, the night life awesome but you have to plan to travel if you stay more than 3 months because the city can be fully visited quite quickly

Just enjoy your trip !
