91ÑÇÉ«

Program Types/Options

Semester Exchange – Exchange programs allow you to study at a 91ÑÇÉ« exhange partner university abroad and directly enroll in coursework as a visiting international student. 91ÑÇÉ« reviews students based on the host university’s selection criteria. Exchange programs tend to be affordable programs because you only pay 91ÑÇÉ« tuition and not tuition to the overseas university. Typically, the same state, federal, and institutional aid can apply to your semester abroad.

Semester Study Abroad – Students attend a university abroad as a visiting international student. 91ÑÇÉ« reviews students based on the host university’s selection criteria. Students enroll in classes at the host university and transfer their courses back to 91ÑÇÉ«. Non-exchange programs are typically more expensive than exchange programs because of the program/tuition, differential. A program/tuition differential is the difference in what 91ÑÇÉ« charges for tuition, and what the overseas institution charges for tuition and program inclusions (such as housing).

Short-Term Faculty Led – Faculty-led programs vary in length but are on average one to three weeks long and travel in conjunction with a course. Travel typically occurs at the beginning or end of the semester or during a college break. You are abroad with a faculty and a cohort of other students. Typically summer, intersession, or spring break programs.

91ÑÇÉ« offers a special program model known as Travel Added Courses (TAC). These are fall or spring semester courses with travel associated with them. The travel either happens during winter break, spring break, or in late May. These programs are more financially accessible for students as there is no extra tuition cost associated with them for full-time students and students can apply financial aid from the term to them. These programs tend to be 15 days or less.

Short-Term Host-Institution – Similar to a semester program, but in the summer. Students take summer-sessions courses at the host university abroad and transfer their courses back to 91ÑÇÉ«.
