Semester & Quarter Programs
Our semester and quarter study abroad programs are designed to fully immerse U.S. college students in the local culture of each destination.

Designed for: Full-semester or quarter study abroad
No matter which destination you choose, every program is carefully designed to deliver a meaningful, academically rigorous, and culturally enriching study abroad experience.
Summer Programs
Our summer study abroad programs offer the same immersive approach as our semester programs, just in a shorter, flexible format that fits perfectly into a U.S. university summer break.
Each summer program is designed around the destination itself, encouraging students to learn not only in the classroom but also through daily cultural experiences.
Program length: 4–6 weeks
Academic credit: Up to 6 U.S. college credits
Ideal for: Students seeking short-term study abroad programs
No matter which summer theme you choose, you’ll gain hands-on cultural learning while staying on track academically.

Each internship includes:
A personalized placement
An internship seminar for academic credit
Ongoing support from an internship coordinator
You’ll never navigate your international work experience alone, we support you every step of the way while helping you build a global resume.
Research Programs
Our research abroad programs in San José and Buenos Aires partner with local universities to offer personalized research opportunities for U.S. college students.
These programs allow you to:
Conduct research in your academic field from an international perspective

Take Spanish language courses alongside your research
This is an ideal option for students seeking academic depth, faculty engagement, and cross-cultural research experience.
Spanish Language Programs
In addition to study abroad programs, Expanish specializes in Spanish language education. All of our destinations are located in Spanish-speaking countries, and every Expanish study center is a highly accredited Spanish language school.
Our Spanish language programs offer U.S. university students a flexible way to enhance their time abroad:
Intensive Spanish programs starting at the beginning of each month
A multicultural, immersive learning environment
Ideal for students at any language level
Whether paired with a study abroad program or taken independently, our Spanish courses provide a deep, culturally rooted approach to language learning.
