National Student Exchange

National Student Exchange (NSE) offers undergraduate students the opportunity to study at other member institutions within the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. NSE is less costly than study-abroad programs and allows students to:

  • Cross state, regional, provincial, and cultural borders to take courses not available on their home campus
  • Expand their academic program options
  • Reside in a different region
  • Be exposed to diverse cultural settings
  • Seek out graduate and professional schools
  • Explore career options

With 190 colleges and universities from which to choose, students can find an institution that fits their own academic goals, as well as their personal needs and interests.

"For me, going abroad seemed too far away; staying home seemed too close. NSE was the perfect choice!"
