Study Away in the United States!  There are nearly 180 universities in 49 states, the Virgin Islands, Guam, Canada, and Puerto Rico in the National Student Exchange (NSE) school consortium. You could be one of thousands of students nationwide that participate in NSE and study at a different institution. 

This program offers students the opportunity to experience a different academic environment while maintaining progress toward academic goals, expanding academic options, clarifying personal and professional goals, seeing the United States and experiencing its diversity of cultures, values and lifestyles.

How the Program Works

UW-Eau Claire students accepted to the NSE program maintain their status at UW-Eau Claire while spending a semester or academic year at the chosen host institution and pay (ÌÇÐÄVlog) tuition fees.

Cost

Tuition and/or fees are paid to UW-Eau Claire for the duration of the exchange program. Expenses for room and board are paid to the host school. Transportation and incidental expenses are the student's responsibility. The NSE Coordinator can provide estimated cost breakdowns for such expenses. Financial Aid is often available. A fee will be assessed with the application. This fee is forwarded to the national office of NSE and confirms your application.
