Cuidado del campus
UWC Costa Rica’s new campus is located in the mountains of San Isidro de Heredia, on a unique piece of land next to the Braulio Carrillo National Park. The 48 hectares of nature will allow students and guests to immerse themselves in new learning environments, wind down on the trails across campus, learn about the different flora and fauna ecosystems shared with the national park and breathe the fresh air of the mountains. Our current campus at the heart of Santa Ana allows students to directly engage with the Costa Rican community while still surrounded by nature.

Each residence house in Santa Ana has between 24 and 28 students. We have between two and four students per room who are supported by two student resident assistants (who have constant training and adult support) and one adult resident coordinator who lives adjacent to each building.
Students can stay on campus or stay with host families during the mid-term breaks. During summer, students must return to their families.
The school supports students’ academic and emotional well-being through:
