Our students can participate for a single term or an academic year to access courses and programs not available here. Students also participate in NSE to look for graduate schools or employment opportunities. Since the majority of our students are from this area, it is a great benefit for them to have exposure to other areas of the country and to other academic settings. The changes seen in student attitudes, understanding of other people in other settings, maturity, risk-taking, and decision-making are similar to the experiences of students who study internationally.
Among other criteria, students qualify for the program by being in good standing, having a cumulative 2.5 GPA, being a full-time student, presenting academic and personal goal statements and securing recommendations, and participating in an interview process. Prior to exchange, the student must have secured a written advising agreement.
NSE operates with tuition reciprocity and financial aid portability. With placement rates of 97 percent, our students easily find a location to meet both their academic and personal objectives.
