Two campuses operate in Mexico City: Polanco and Coyoacán. The Polanco campus is located at Av. Homero 1521, Col. Polanco, CDMX 11560, and the Coyoacán campus at Calle Xico 24, Col. Oxtopulco Universidad, CDMX 04310. The La Cantine cafeteria uses a digital payment system with SmartLunch bracelets linked to student accounts; parents enroll, download the app, and load funds to pay in the cafeteria. Libraries across both campuses include Marmothèque, BCD, and CDI; Polanco houses a large CDI with extensive collections and online catalogs, while Coyoacán offers Marmothèque, BCD, and CDI with resources in multiple languages. On-site facilities include a first-aid unit, three movement rooms and a gym at Polanco; Coyoacán also has secure play spaces, and swimming is offered from the early years at a nearby pool, with a Dos Ríos outdoor sports site used monthly.

Sports Facilities

The Polanco campus provides three movement rooms and a gym for physical activity, along with a secure playground space.
