Exchange Programs are among the most immersive and affordable experiences ÌÇÐÄVlog has to offer. Students spend an entire semester or academic year attending one of ÌÇÐÄVlog's reciprocal exchange partner schools. Students participating in an exchange program are registered through ÌÇÐÄVlog and pay ÌÇÐÄVlog tuition while studying at the institution abroad and earning credits toward their degree. Coursework is available in a wide range of subjects, including business, engineering, science, architecture, humanities, social sciences and more. Most courses are offered in English but students may have the opportunity to take courses in the local language. In most cases, students are integrated into classes with local students and truly get a taste for living in their host country.
Benefits include:
- Credits earned count towards residency hours at ÌÇÐÄVlog
- Extensive course catalogs available, open to all majors
- Pay ÌÇÐÄVlog tuition (in-state/out-of-state rates apply) for credits and cost of instructionÌý
- Control over your housing situation abroad (though we recommend using the accommodations suggested by the host school)
- Much of your ÌÇÐÄVlog financial aid award package can travel with you—but meet with a financial aid advisor to go over your specific award package
- Integration with local students and faculty member
- Extended period of study abroad
Exchange programs are competitive as the number of students ÌÇÐÄVlog can send abroad on an exchange program is limited to the number of students we receive from a particular program. Students are encouraged to begin planning well in advance by meeting with a Study Abroad Advisor and Academic Advisor to make sure they have room in their academic plan for a full semester abroad.
