University Programs
Santiago's larger universities are happy to accept foreign students, perhaps because foreign students pay higher tuition than Chilean students. You can either enroll in a degree program or attend universities as a Free International Student (Alumno Libre Internacional). As a Free International Students, you may choose courses from any of the university’s departments, providing you fulfill the general requirements for each course. To participate in these programs, you must have a student visa (see student visa section).
The Pontifical Catholic University (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile) offers courses specifically designed for foreigners. The university also offers a comprehensive introductory course on Chilean history and culture for about US$200. See the university's web site for details. The university's Extension Center (Centro de Extensión) offers cultural activities and some classes.
The University of Chile (Universidad de Chile) is Chile's largest university. It offers a wide variety of Spanish classes for foreigners that you can take if you enroll as a Free International Student.
There are many smaller private universities that also offer programs for expatriates. These universities tend to
cost more than larger universities.
