Academic Year/Semester Program
The year program is the most popular program in all YFU countries. In Argentina, students arrive in August and, as in other countries, they live with volunteer host families and attend high schools as full-time students. Students are not required to have excellent grades, but it is important to make an effort to learn the language and participate as much as they can. Even if they cannot graduate, school provide certificates with the grades obtained. The year and semester programs include: an orientation upon arrival, a pre departure orientation and the YFU trip, in February.
Short program
