Three foreign-student routes
UNSJ lists exchange study for one or two semesters, full undergraduate or pre-degree study, and postgraduate study. Admission depends on the study period, situation and level. Contact the faculty or international office about current applications, deadlines, required language and your previous qualifications.6
Exchange documents have their own scope
The international-mobility list includes the FIENI application, a legalized current-student certificate, international health insurance, endorsement from the home university, a valid passport, CV, health and psychological-fitness certificates, and a recommendation. It requests a Spanish certificate if the applicant has one. Foreign documents must be in Spanish or translated into Spanish or English as stated by the university. Confirm the current list with the office.6
These are exchange requirements, not a complete document list for every full-degree or postgraduate applicant. The university lists its international office at Mitre 396 este, fourth floor, with 0264 429 5179 and internacionales@unsj.edu.ar. Ask for the correct office and course-specific procedure.6
School-age children and museum visits
For school-age children, ask the prospective school or provincial education authority about the available grade level, teaching schedule, documents and placement. No particular school place, bilingual program, tuition or international accreditation is confirmed here. Check the actual school journey before renting.3,
The Urban History Museum describes free school group visits by reservation for the 2025 school year, with a maximum group of 30. That dated program is not a current booking. Ask the museum about today's school visits, dates and availability.2
