Studying in a foreign country not quite the fit for you? Study away through National Student Exchange instead!

 

National Student Exchange (NSE) provides accessible collegiate "study away" options for students

  • Spend a semester or two at 170+ universities in the United States, Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands
  • How it works:  
    • Host pay option: pay the resident (in-state) tuition and fees to your host campus
    • Home pay option: pay your normal tuition and fees to your home university  
    • Can use federal financial aid in either case
    • Housing is the responsibility of the student so may choose to live on or off campus
