Alternatives: Exchange Programs

Among these various ways of going abroad economically, most of the exchange programs allow their applicants to pay their own school's tuition fee only and offers credit-transfer services. Therefore it's probably the most economic and accessible way for a student to visit a school in a foreign country. Let's take NCCU students for an example and see where and how can they go abroad within their college years.

First of all, it will be a lot more easier to pick from the current NCCU school partners list or applicants might don't know where to start from. According to the office of international cooperation in NCCU, the school has a great number of partner universities across five continents. For students who would like to use English as the spoken language while they study and travel, universities that located in North America should be their top choices. NCCU currently has 58 partner universities in North America, the schools are scattered in both Canada and the United State. Here are some world famous schools that are listed in our partnership list in North America: University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA),   University of California, Berkeley (UCB), University of Wisconsin-Madison, just to name a few. The term of these programs depends on each partnership contract, which will last among one to two semester. Some universities also provides summer school for a people who want to experience the way of local living in a short period of time, however, these summer schools won't be as economical as the exchange program I recommended this week. The rest of the information about when is the time for application for admission and all the things about the school will be posted on the school's website, thus make sure to visit the school's website frequently if you're interested in the programs they offer.

In sum, what an exchange program provides is almost the same as that of a 2-year foreign study plan if yuo are well prepared and open minded. Do a little study about the school that you would like to go, send out your application form and enjoy!
