Background

 

National Student Exchange at WOU

 

The National Student Exchange program is new to Western Oregon University!

 

Imagine, if you can the opportunities available from the combined resources of 170 campuses with all of their courses and programs. Consider expanding the boundaries of a university to spread across this vast country and into her furthest territories. Think of the adventure, of the untold diversity of people, culture, and geography. That is the National Student Exchange (NSE).

 

Since it's founding in 1968, more than 60,000 students have been successfully placed in this intra-United States students exchange program, each taking advantage of the enormous savings in cost while still having access to personalized assistance from experienced campus coordinators.

 

Through the NSE program, academically qualified students are given the opportunity to spend up to one year at another school, while paying in-state tuition rates, and maintaining academic progress toward degree requirements, Credits earned during the exchange become part of each students' home school transcript.
