NationalStudentExchange

There will be two National Student Exchange events held this week. Application Deadline for exchanges during the 2010-2011 academic year: February 10, 2010.

Tuesday, January 19: Informational Table on the Beach in Student Center from 11:00-1:00. This table will be staffed by a past NSE participant.

Wednesday, January 20: Informational Presentation in Student Center CR 123 from 6:00-8:00 (Snow date: Thursday, January 21, same room/time)

I encourage you to visit the NSE website at www.nse.org as well as the Student section where you can search by major/discipline to see which participating schools may be a good fit for your students. You can also contact me directly for information and to receive a printed copy of the National Student Exchange bulletin. Although the website is much more comprehensive, the bulletin does provide a quick glance at each participating school.

NSE is an affordable option for students who want to study away: Participants continue to pay UMF tuition and fees directly to UMF and they pay room and board to the host campus. They are not charged tuition at the host school. Financial aid can be used for this exchange program.

If you have any questions or want further information about NSE, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thanks for your assistance!
