The Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ) has over a decade of experience designing and executing customized programs (faculty-led programs) of any duration or academic focus.
International students could be degree seeking students at USFQ. They can enroll in their major of interest or can opt for a one-year pathway program to discover their area of interest before committing to a major.
The Pathway Program is designed for national and international students who have not decided what to study and wish to experience life in Quito by studying at USFQ. Students will have access to classes in the arts, communication, humanities, sciences and social sciences alongside local students.
All USFQ students have access to academic services and extracurricular activities. In this section you will find additional resources designed to support international students.

Let us advance the solution of the puzzle! The success
