Uruguayan American School (UAS) offers three accredited programs of study: U.S. high school diploma, Uruguayan high school diploma, and IB diploma. The New England Association of Schools and Colleges fully accredited the school, and it is the only Uruguayan school to maintain the U.S. academic calendar. UAS has approximately 330 students from nursery through grade 12. The school size allows students to participate in many after-school activities, clubs, and sports while receiving individual academic attention because of the commitment to maintaining small class sizes. The sports offered are basketball, soccer, swimming, and volleyball; the teams participate in regional tournaments.
