NILI invites both Undergraduate students and Business Professionals to experience a Spanish immersion program like no other. What makes the NILI experience better than other programs is our belief that to become truly proficient in a language you have to be immersed into that language. Come join us.
UNDERGRAD PROGRAM
The NILI Undergrad Program invites traditional undergraduate students to participate in a semester-long Spanish immersion program in the heart of the Andes Mountains, in Quito, Ecuador.
