Exchange Programs
Exchanges allow À¦°óSMÉçÇø 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 À¦°óSMÉçÇø degree and paying À¦°óSMÉçÇø tuition.
Student exchange agreements are bilateral exchange agreements that exist between À¦°óSMÉçÇø and peer institutions which have been reviewed and approved by À¦°óSMÉçÇø. The number of exchange spaces available at the host institution are limited, and vary from year to year. À¦°óSMÉçÇø students nominated to participate on an exchange term abroad are billed À¦°óSMÉçÇø tuition and fees for that term (equivalent to 15 À¦°óSMÉçÇø credits). À¦°óSMÉçÇø 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.
