    I traveled to Costa Rica this summer to study abroad and improve my Spanish. During my two month stay, I studied Spanish at the Universidad de Costa Rica. I cannot express enough how much this place has changed my life forever. I will, for the rest of my life, live with a 'pura vida' mentality. All the amazing women at this school were some of the most influential people I have ever met and I am forever changed because of them.

    I had a midnight flight and i didn't know what to do in San Juan. So i went to the UCR, in hope to see a sloth and after 2h of walking around i saw 3 of them hanging in a tree. Totally worth it. Amazing food too

    My Alma Mater. Simply the best University in Costa Rica, Central America and one of the best in Latin America. You can expect very challenging courses professors and you will truly learn to think, analyze and investigate. If you’re looking for just getting a certificate easily, this is not the place for you. Bonus point: the best campus in Costa Rica surrounded with Green areas.

    The Best University in Costa Rica. It is worth seeing it if you have time. Also, there is a small chance of seeing sloths. But most importantly, if you are interested in science, you will find scientist with the highest standart worldwide.

    University of Costa Rica and the surrounding is a great place to catch the local vibe. Probably one of the more safer areas of San Jose. Lots of statues around the campus to look at and learn the history of the university. You will also be able to walk the many trails around campus. The university has definitely integrated nature into campus life as they also offer a guided nature walk so you can learn more about the animals in the local area. The students are very friendly and enjoy practicing their English speaking skills so the area feels a bit more welcoming to foreigners.

    (Translated by Google) Very nice university. What it offers, from administrative services to the scholarships they offer for those who study there. Is very complete. It has a lot of green areas, yes, fixed it arrives sweaty in that it has to change buildings for classes. But otherwise excellent (Original) Muy bonita universidad. Lo que ofrece, desde servicios administrativos y hasta las becas que ofrecen para quienes estudian ahí. Es muy completa. Tiene muchas zonas verdes, eso sí, fijo llega sudado en eso que tiene que cambiarse de edificios para las clases. Pero por lo demás excelente

    Maravillosa institución!!!! La UCR es la entidad de educación superior más importante de Costa Rica y de Centroamérica. Es una de las universidades más prestigiosas del continente americano. Su proyección en el mundo es permanente y aumenta cada vez más.

    The best uni in CR but with very small and hot classrooms. The food from the cafeteria in Generales, Derecho, Comedor Estudiantil, Letras sucks because of it's low quality although it's cheap.
