National Student Exchange

National Student Exchange

National Student Exchange (NSE) is an exchange program for undergraduate students in the United States and Canada. Through this program, students can study in a different region of the United States or Canada at little or no additional cost.

The National Student Exchange program began in the 1967/1968 school year with only seven students. The purpose of this program was to allow students who could not take advantage of the study abroad programs at their school to experience a different culture for a year or semester. Since 1967 the program has grown to include over 180 college campuses in the United States, Canada, and Caribbean and places over 3500 students every year.

There are two different plans on which a student can exchange on, plan A and plan B. If a student exchanges on plan A, the student pays the in-state tuition rate at their host campus. The classes taken at the host campus are transferred to the home campus after the exchange period. Plan B allows students to pay tuition at their home campus and enroll in classes at their home campus, although they will not physically be at their home campus. With both plans the student must meet with their academic advisor to create a contract that includes all of the courses that the student will take while on exchange.
