Program Costs



Admission & Reservation


At the moment of applying we will ask you for an application fee of 50 USD (for applicants already in Chile: 100 USD). This amount is considered part of the whole program costs and will be deducted from the balance once you accept a position and pay the program.

If we do not offer you an internship in the desired area within 10 weeks (counting from the moment we receive the application fee), we will restore the application fee to you (deducting transfer costs). If you withdraw your application within these 10 weeks or if you do not accept an internship offer, there will be no right to refund.

Once accepted the placement, we will ask you for a reservation deposit of 220 USD. The balance of the complete program costs is due at least two weeks before your arrival.

Internship + Housing


The Program costs are charged on a weekly basis and include the arrangement of the internship, the monitoring during your stay and the rent:
