Studying abroad in Latin America!

Hi there!

I'm a Law/philosophy/spanish student from Australia and am super keen to travel and hopefully do a university exchange some place in Latin America.

I'm pretty sure my university offers only a couple partners, and as Spanish is only a minor portion of my degree I would have to be studying my units in English which I understand would be quite hard to accommodate, however I would like to be in an environment to accommodate actually learning spanish.

My options are

Mexico: Tec de Monterrey (ITESM) (Mexico City, guadalajara etc)

Argentina: UCA (Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina)

Chile: Universidad del Desarrollo (UDD) or Universidad de los Andes (Chile) (Santiago, Concepción)

Colombia: maybe uniades but its not super clear from my uni.

I would be undertaking only liberal arts/spanish subjects as my law cannot be done overseas, and am most keen for a REAL university/college culture, something that is sadly hard to find in Australia, as well as somewhere that can be immersive and help language progression without being stuck too much in a 'foreign' bubble

I understand as well Chile would be the most expensive and the hardest dialect to accommodate, and the cost of living would definitely be a factor for me.

Cheers for your help
