History

In 1617 the Jesuits founded a grammar school in Buenos Aires called Loreto College. In 1868 the school was renamed Colegio del Salvador. Its sister university, Universidad del Salvador, was founded in 1958 after private universities were authorized. A contemporary expression of the Colegio's mission is integral education, creating men imbued with a spirit of service of others.

Programs and activities

The educational program leads to pre-university courses in conjunction with the following: Austral University in information sciences, law, engineering, and medicine; College Admission Differentiated System (SAD) of the Pontifical Catholic University of Argentina (UCA); agreements with University of CEMA and University of Belgrano.

The school has academic exchange programs with Boston College High School, Georgetown Preparatory School, and Loyola High School, Los Angeles, USA.

In the final three years of high school all students make a three-day, Ignatian, spiritual retreat at the school's own Villa de Mayo. The Colegio's chief outreach programs for students, parents, and alumni are with Fe y Alegría, Mission to Boqueron, Ignatian Haiti, and Obra de San Jose (which cares for the homeless). Other outreach experiences include a week of homebuilding in the province of Black River; faith-sharing with the poor in Concordia Mission during Holy Week; and the international Eucharistic Youth Movement (MEJ).

Sports activities include a fitness center, pool, football fields, rama sports football, basketball, volleyball, and handball.

The College applied for a television license when the government loosened control after the Peronist era.

The future Pope Francis taught literature and psychology at Colegio del Salvador before his ordination, in 1966, and in the late 1980s served at the College as spiritual director and confessor.
