Maybe more about the culture, but itis hard to learn the little things..But in general mexicans are enjoyable and respect that you are from a different culture and therefore don't understand everything..They also try to moderate a little their language (skip slang) for you to understand

Be careful. Mexico City is a big city, and one has to take care..For example, one should not get a taxi on the street (for robberies), rather call a taxi. Also be careful where you withdraw money. The university was very helpful informing us about what to do regarding security. We did never have any bad experiences, but we tried at least to be careful..And I felt safe there!

The courses are very timeconsuming (assistence obligatory for every course twice a week), so plan from the start where you want to go when!

Mexiko has a worse reputation than it deserves. Of course its more dangerous than other countries but as always when you watch out and when you are not stupid nothing will happen to you.

Make sure to take courses you will enjoy. The workload is quite high, so if you don't like the course it could be difficult.

Travel as much as you can. Mexico is such a beautiful country, and there are so many things to see. If you have a chance also try and spend a weekend somewhere far away from tourism with a family, with locals.
As a female be prepared that you will be treated differently than you may be used to and that you will have to adapt to the local culture (eg fashion). Mexicans are definetly machos.

“The best university in Mexico”
anonymous
Mexico, Undergraduate
Financial Management, 2019
Overall
Most of the3 teachers have studied at ITAM for their bachelor, and have studied at some of the best unvniversities in the world. They have worked or are still working in the government as administration secretaries, or are the CEOs of big local or international companies.
ITAM is the best university in Mexico because it takes the most of its students. To get in is hard, but to stay is harder.
