Description: The Instituto Technologico De Estudios Superiores De Monterrey allows UW-RF students to attend by paying regular UW tuition. The program is open to any university student. Knowledge of the Spanish language is not a requirement; however, if you do not speak Spanish you will be required to enroll in a language development course at ITESM. The program is located in Guadalajara, the capital of the Mexican state of Jalisco. Guadalajara is the second largest city in Mexico and is a sophisticated and cosmopolitan city that still retains old world charm and the traditional values of Mexico. The suburban location of ITESM is an ideal environment for students. Restaurants, cinemas, and cafes are plentiful and often frequented by university students.
