==Argentina==

===Admission===
In Argentina, the admission to a Postgraduate program at an Argentine University requires the full completion of any undergraduate course, called in Argentina "carrera de grado" (v.gr. [[Licentiate (degree)|Licenciado]], [[Engineering degree|Ingeniero]] or Lawyer degree). The qualifications of 'Licenciado', 'Ingeniero', or the equivalent qualification in Law degrees (a graduate from a "carrera de grado") are similar in content, length and skill-set to a joint first and second cycles in the qualification framework of the [[Bologna Process]] (that is, Bachelor and Master qualifications).

===Funding===
While a significant portion of postgraduate students finance their tuition and living costs with teaching or research work at private and state-run institutions, international institutions, such as the Fulbright Program and the Organization of American States (OAS), have been known to grant full scholarships for tuition with apportions for housing.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://spuweb.siu.edu.ar/studyinargentina/pages/study1203.php |title=Study in Argentina |access-date=2010-04-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100507074830/http://spuweb.siu.edu.ar/studyinargentina/pages/study1203.php |archive-date=2010-05-07 }} Scholarships in Argentina</ref>
