Cusco is not only the most visited city in Perú — it is also one of the safest cities in the country. That is one of the reasons why Peru Study Abroad chose it as the base for its academic, service-learning and internship programs.
Where you will study
Classes take place at Universidad Andina del Cusco (UAC). Its three campuses are located in the safest districts of the city, with easy access to supermarkets, restaurants and malls.
Support on the ground
Every PSA student has 24/7 in-country support, airport pick-up on arrival and a pre-departure and on-site orientation, so you know how the city works from day one.
Simple habits that help
- Take the first days easy while you adapt to the altitude.
- Keep a copy of your passport and your international health insurance details (insurance is required and not included in the program fee).
- Ask your host family or the PSA team before exploring new areas at night.
