WHY STUDY IN CITY?
Havana is the capital city and leading commercial center of Cuba. Its signature architecture dots every corner of the city, lending a distinctly historic air to the casual, Caribbean atmosphere that permeates Cuban society. A colorful ocean view provides a postcard-perfect backdrop to the city, while the active discussions about history, politics, music, and baseball fill the air. Havana is past and future in one place, constantly evolving.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Ideal for adventurous, flexible students who want to connect with Cuban people, experience vibrant cultural life, and see the natural beauty of the Caribbean. Learn among Cuban peers and students from all over the world at Universidad de La Habana. Classes are taught in Spanish. Humanities and social sciences classes tend to be popular with IFSA students. With a homestay and engaging activities and excursions, you’ll get to know Cuba’s unique social and economic system.
