Bachelor degree at UCA

Students are accepted to bachelor's programs at UCA based on the results of entrance exams.

UCA campus

The campus of the educational institution is located in Buenos Aires. This opens up all the delights of life in a big city for students: a rich infrastructure, a large selection of entertainment, convenient transport, as well as more opportunities for internships or part-time jobs. However, for some students, such an abundance of opportunities can be distracting. The university has a library where students can do their homework, write scientific papers or just read interesting books. Not only locals study at UCA, but also students from other countries. The variety of cultures represented broadens the horizons of students and fills student life with all sorts of activities, the purpose of which is cultural exchange.
