Application Process for Full-Time Students

Know when you need to submit your application for a Full-Time Exchange Program

Applications for the Full-Time Exchange Program will be done in two rounds. If you are highly interested in a particular school(s), we recommend that you apply during Round 1. We cannot guarantee that all partner schools will have spaces available for Round 2. Typically, several schools close during Round 1.

Note: Students interested in studying abroad during the Fall term must apply during Round 1.

Upcoming information sessions

Additional information regarding information sessions, including the location, will be posted on the Campus Groups calendar, as well as sent to the student listserv at least one week in advance.

Application process

Full-Time students may apply to a maximum of three schools per round. Each application will be considered on its own merit in comparison with the other applications for that particular school. Applying to multiple schools does not affect your chances of being assigned to your first choice
