“A WORLD OF FRIENDS”
Under this Program, a full-time UNCuyo student is assigned as tutor to a foreign student. After receiving his or her Admission Letter, the foreign student can opt whether or not to have a tutor.
Tutors collaborate and guide foreign students throughout their stay at UNCuyo to facilitate their integration into academic and social life.
