What do I have to know before I go? Student Exchange Program What do I have to know before I go?

Agenda A unique experience But also bit of a headache What answers should I look for? Tips

A unique experience Unique and top-class courses A different study experience (study cases, group work, language…) Diversity of people and backgrounds Many extra-curricular activities Many networking possibilities

But also quite a headache Administration: accommodation, certifications, insurance, visas, choosing courses Interferes with everyday life Unknown environment Cultural differences Not cheap Course accreditation

What answers should I look for? What courses are relevant for me? What is the host university’s main focus? How is student life on campus and off campus? Are there activities for partners?

Tips Be realistic and strategic about your choices Read exchange summaries online Talk to people who have been there Take care of administrations as soon as possible When choosing courses- check the professors

To sum it up It is a great opportunity and an amazing experience But it comes with a price Talk to people who have been there Keep an open mind
