Student Exchange Program
The Student Exchange Program is a mutual exchange of students between UIC and international colleges and universities in Asia, Europe, North America and South America. Students who participate in the exchange program may study for a summer, semester or academic year abroad. The reciprocity of the exchange program offers students an affordable option for overseas study because students only pay tuition to UIC and do not pay provider fees. Students in the exchange program are responsible for paying for food and accommodations abroad. The Student Exchange Program offers many programs tailored to meet the needs of graduate students and students with strong language proficiency, as well as students who do not speak any foreign language. To apply for the Student Exchange Program, students must submit an application . Deadlines vary by program. Please contact the Exchange Programs Coordinator, Kristin Kutella, at kkutella@uic.edu or 312-996-5455 for your specific program deadline and directions on how to apply.
Financial Aid and Scholarships
Most, if not all, financial aid can be applied to your Student Exchange Program. Each year there are also more and more scholarships available for studying overseas. Click on "Campus International News" on the left-hand column for more information!
Course Credit
Students participating on an exchange program will receive UIC credit for courses approved by their academic advisor. Students will meet with their academic advisor to determine how these credits will be counted towards their UIC degree. Please note that the grades students receive abroad will count toward their GPA.
