Exchange Programs

Spending a semester or year abroad through an exchange program is a rewarding and affordable option for many students. Students are nominated by their home institution and have the opportunity to Discover, Engage, and Learn at a partner institution. Please note that you must pay ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ tuition if you would like to be considered and eligible for ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ scholarships, grants, and other State/Federal funds. 

Global exchange programs are a great choice for ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ students who seek a more independent experience and want to be fully integrated into the local culture. Students have more freedom to plan their own semester activities and excursions and may find a more broad selection of courses through exchange programs. But be aware that some institutions may require visiting international students to take courses in the host language. Want more information? Email studyabroad@moravian.edu or attend an upcoming information session.

Affordability

For global exchange programs, ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ students pay ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ tuition and fees and then become visiting students at an international university. You won't pay room and board charges to ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ while on global exchange programs. However, you will pay for housing and meals while abroad in the same way that host students pay.

Please Note: If you are studying abroad with an exchange program, it is your responsibility to obtain a visa. CGE will assist where possible, but most of the coordination will be between you and the exchange university.
