National Student Exchange Program

Why NSE?

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:

  • Explore a new city
  • Learn in a new environment
  • Embrace new opportunities you may not have at home
  • Gain a different perspective of North America
  • Study in the city of your dreams while you search for future employment opportunities
  • Gain a new perspective with new professors and classmates
  • Discover a new way of life from the natives
  • Get out of your comfort zone and explore new things
  • Become more mature & independent
  • Be challenged by a different university
  • Acquire life skills
  • Explore new areas of study
  • Experience personal growth
  • Meet new friends and network
  • Emerse yourself in a new city closer to home than going overseas

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.
