Study Abroad in Belize
Belize is the northernmost country in Central America and although Spanish is spoken among the people, it is the only country in Central America where English is the official language. Approximately 2,300 American students will study abroad in Belize each year. With an extremely low population density and high ecosystem and species diversity, Belize is a great place for students to study abroad.
