Exchange Programs
Exchanges allow ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ students to complete a semester or year of study at a partner university. Students explore, learn, and grow abroad, all while earning credit toward their ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ degree and paying ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ tuition.
Student exchange agreements are bilateral exchange agreements that exist between ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ and peer institutions which have been reviewed and approved by ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ. The number of exchange spaces available at the host institution are limited, and vary from year to year. ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ students nominated to participate on an exchange term abroad are billed ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ tuition and fees for that term (equivalent to 15 ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ credits). ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ has agreements with over 150 universities in 39 countries around the world. Exchange programs can be university-wide or faculty-specific. Faculty-specific agreements are only open to students in the specified faculty.
