NSE provides students with affordable and practical opportunities to experience new and diverse settings in which to study and live. Students can study for a semester or a year paying either UAA tuition or resident tuition at a choice of nearly 200 colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada, including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Visit http://www.nse.org for more information, and access UAA's NSE application here. The application fee is $200.00. After you have applied for the National Student Exchange, use the NSE Academic Advisement Agreement Instructions and Form to have your courses pre-approved for credit transfer. Short-Term Programs While it is ideal to be able to study abroad for a semester or a year, some students cannot fit the expense or the time into their busy lifestyles. Short-term study abroad opportunities are an excellent way to experience "living" abroad in a short, intense time frame that is affordable and convenient for those with work and family obligations that won't allow them to leave home for extended periods of time. |
