The University of Viña del Mar welcomes students from across the Americas, Europe, and Asia, many of whom are drawn to the school’s renowned Spanish Center.  Since 2008 the UVM has been certified to provide the Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language (DELE) which is organized by the Cervantes Institute of Spain together with the Universidad de Salamanca. Take integrated courses with local and other international students, taught in your choice of English and Spanish, on the university’s two centrally located campuses.  

When in Viña del Mar, live as the locals do! Choose CEA housing or arrange your own independent housing. CEA Housing assignments are based on availability and confirmation date; we make every effort to match your housing requests, but we can’t guarantee housing preferences.
