Hi everybody,

hope this is not the 5th time or so for this question...

well, I am going to BSAS this July for a 4week-language course and one additional week for traveling.
I know as a tourist I do not need a visa for just 5 weeks.
But is there any difference beacuse of the language course? Since in the US there's a visa requierement if you participate in a language course with over 15hrs per week. I couldn't find any information on the embassy hp cause it's not accesible right now and I didn't receive any answer on my e-mail from the embassy.

Thanks in advance for any help!

No Student visa is necessary, thousands of people come to Argentina every year and take private or class courses in Spanish Language. Student visa is only necessary if you enroll in a University program like I did in 2006.

Good Luck!
