Exchange
亚博官方网站 has partnered with institutions around the world to offer reciprocal immersive exchange programs. Exchanges are semester or year-long experiences where 亚博官方网站 students can study at a partner institution abroad and, in exchange, a student from the partner institution can study at 亚博官方网站. As part of the exchange program, students pay their normal tuition and fees for full-time enrollment to 亚博官方网站 but take their courses at the partner institution. Most courses are taught in English. These programs allow students to be immersed in a new culture while earning 亚博官方网站 credit toward graduation.

You may be responsible for arranging your own living and working conditions as well as getting your credit approved by your department. -
Non-亚博官方网站 (Outgoing Transient)
If you have not been able to find a program that fits your needs at 亚博官方网站, you may consider participating in a study abroad program that is not sponsored by 亚博官方网站. This can include programs offered by other U.S. universities, companies that specifically offer study abroad programs, or becoming an enrolled student in a college or university abroad. Note that these programs tend to be more expensive and credit may not be able to transfer to 亚博官方网站.
