Semester abroad

We aim to partner with institutions that provide you with the opportunity to study at any level – undergraduate, honours and postgraduate by coursework. This means that with our partners there are a variety of courses open to you, at every level of study. Some will accept students from any faculty, while others offer only some disciplines – City University of Hong Kong, for example, currently accepts only undergraduate business and economics and law students. But we are constantly negotiating with our partners to ensure we can provide exchange opportunities to suit every student.

Lost in translation

You might be surprised how many of our exchange opportunities allow you to continue your course in English. Some of our partners teach entirely in English, while others teach in English and the local language. If you want to study in that language you will have to have a certain proficiency. You may need to sit a language test, if this is the case.

Matching up your semesters

Semester dates in the southern hemisphere differ to those in the northern hemisphere – meaning that while semester one in Australia begins in March, in places like the UK the Spring term (their second semester) begins in January. Be sure to check the dates to make sure they align with your current program.

Some of our partners also have additional requirements like minimum average results, and in some cases extra fees. Please make sure you view the partner institution's website and read their information carefully.
