UNLP publishes this figure without stating which year it applies to, so it may already be out of date. Treat it as a starting point and check the course page for the current rate. Flag it below if you know it has changed.
Confirmed tuition-free, and stated by UNLP on the page it writes specifically for foreign applicants: "La Universidad Nacional de La Plata es una institución pública, gratuita y sin cupos que cuenta con 17 Facultades y más de 165 titulaciones de grado y pregrado" - public, free and without entry quotas, across its grado and pregrado degrees. The page prices nothing at all: the only requirements it sets a foreign applicant are a student visa (VISA DE ESTUDIANTE, applied for through the Argentine foreign ministry after conditional enrolment), an in-person handover of paper documents at the chosen faculty, and, for anyone whose first language is not Spanish, a CELU or UNLP CertEA Spanish certificate at a level each academic unit sets for itself. Two limits worth knowing: enrolment for 2026 ran 10 November to 12 December and an applicant may register for only one degree per enrolment round. This records tuition only - books, materials, living costs and any faculty student-centre levy are outside what the page speaks to.
Show the fee on the university's site
Argentina's Higher Education Law (Ley 24.521) reserves free undergraduate tuition at state universities for Argentine citizens and for foreigners who hold permanent residency in the country -- a foreign student without permanent residency has never been automatically covered by that guarantee, and the law leaves individual institutions free to charge such students. UNLP's own catalog page for Licenciatura en Informática does not address tuition or fees for international students at all, but the university's central page for foreign applicants ("Información para aspirantes extranjeros") states in general terms that "La Universidad Nacional de La Plata es una institución pública, gratuita y sin cupos" -- though that is general institutional framing addressed to all foreign applicants broadly, not a specific commitment that non-resident students are exempt from fees, so it does not itself resolve the question below. Whether Universidad Nacional de La Plata actually charges non-resident international undergraduates, and how much, is not stated on any official unlp.edu.ar page found. This is a live, actively-discussed question as of September 2026 -- the national government has been pushing universities to exercise this existing legal right to charge non-resident foreigners -- but StudyPath only records what an official source actually states, so no tuition figure (free or paid) is recorded here.
