Dickinson in Mexico

Querétaro, Mexico, located about 120 miles northwest of Mexico City, is expanding, thanks to the growth of industry, but the heart of the city is still distinctively Mexican/Latin American. Its neighborhoods are crisscrossed by cobblestone streets, making it an inviting location in which to hear and speak Spanish. Students live with home-stay families while taking classes at the Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro (UAQ). Field trips to cities such as Guanajuato, Zihuatanejo, Oaxaca and Mexico City are typically scheduled, along with academic excursions to pre-Columbian archaeological sites like Tula and Teotihuacan.
