  • Study in Mexico

    Mexico is the ancient home of the Mayans and the Aztecs, and a popular study destination for students who want something out of the ordinary, something exotic, something that will make their friends say: “Wow, I can’t believe you went there!”

    Of course, its incredible culture and fascinating traditions aren’t the only attractions for prospective students. Mexico also has some of the best universities in Latin America, especially for people interested in Business studies.

    If you want to improve your Spanish language while studying an English-taught degree and spending your free time as a modern Indiana Jones, you cannot go wrong by choosing a degree in Mexico.

  • Why Study in Mexico?

    1. Mexico is very affordable

    When compared to the United States, Canada, or even some European countries, Mexico offers a much more affordable study abroad experience; this includes both lower tuition fees and much lower living costs.

    2. Mexico has a fascinating culture

    From the Mayans to the Aztecs, from the Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) to the unique and spicy cuisine, there are so many things you can explore and experience. With such a rich culture and over 30 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, it’s hard to get bored while in Mexico.

    3. Improve your Spanish skills

    Even if it’s not an official language, Spanish is undoubtedly the most widely spoken language in Mexico. It might be very similar to the type of Spanish you’ll hear in Europe, but local idioms and expressions make it stand out. The best part? Spain is spoken all over the world, so learning it can quickly turn into an advantage in many situations. It even broadens your career horizons.

    4. Investments in high education

    Mexican authorities are investing money and other resources to become a more attractive destination for international students. This is reflected in the increasing number of English-taught degrees and the overall quality of education, which keeps going up.

    5. Enjoy the Mexican hospitality

    It’s no secret that Mexicans are very friendly and hospitable. They treat guests very nicely and strive to make them feel comfortable and have a good time. Perhaps “My house is your house” (Mi casa es su casa) is the perfect saying to describe the Mexican hospitality.
