National Student Exchange Program
STUDY AT ANOTHER UNIVERSITY IN THE UNITED STATES OR CANADA

Why NSE?

"Going away not only creates a sense of independence, but every door of life is opened – culturally, academically, and socially."
— Michelle Ankenbauer
SUNY College at Buffalo
to the University of South Carolina

The National Student Exchange (NSE) provides opportunities for you, as an under­graduate, to study for up to one cal­endar year at another NSE member college or university. With nearly 190 colleges and universities from which to choose, you should be able to find a campus with just the right combination of courses, facilities, and environment to meet your personal and aca­demic needs and interests. As you consider the possibilities, notice that NSE ex­tends beyond the borders of the United States to include U.S. territories as well as some Canadian provinces. Students participate in order to:

  • Broaden personal and educational perspectives
  • Explore and appreciate new cultures
  • Widen university boundaries
  • Take courses not offered at the home campus
  • Learn from different professors
  • Access courses with different perspectives
  • Explore new areas of study
  • Experience personal growth
  • Break out of their comfort zones
  • Live in a different geographic area
  • Acquire life skills
  • Investigate graduate or professional schools
  • Look for future employment opportunities
  • Become more independent and resourceful

If you qualify for participation, you will join the more than 85,000 students who have been placed in life-changing exchange situations which challenged their thinking, expanded their educational and personal experiences, and encouraged them to take risks and reap the rewards of doing so.

Discover a Program Which Will Change Your Life!

"Two roads diverged
in a wood,
and I –
I took the one
less traveled by,
and that has made
all the difference."
