Housing
During the semester in Santiago, students live in
a Chilean home. The homestay allows students to experience
the warmth and hospitality of Chile while making significant
gains in Spanish language ability. Once students have
completed AU Abroad on-line pre-departure forms, an
on-site Housing Coordinator matches the student to
the family to ensure the most suitable living arrangements.
Meals
Students learn first-hand about the culture of Chile
while enjoying two meals a day with their host families.
They also have ample time to go out and explore the
culture and cuisine of Chile.
Schedule
The Chile: Climate Change and Sustainable Development
Enclave takes place every Fall semester.
Fall 2008
Dates TBA
* The "Arrival" date is the day on which
you need to arrive at your site, NOT the date you
leave the U.S. The program starts on the "Arrival"
date and this is the day on which program-sponsored
housing begins. If you arrive before this date, you
are responsible for your own housing. Do not expect
to move into program-sponsored housing early.
** The "Departure" date is the official
end of the program. All program-related activities
will end the night prior to this date (in some cases
you may have a farewell dinner, etc.) On the "Departure"
day you must leave your housing. Do not expect to
stay in program-sponsored housing after the "Departure"
date.
Please note: Program Dates are
subject to change.
