Exchange Program

 

What are the steps to determine the courses I will take in the Exchange program?  

Upon acceptance into the exchange program, you will receive an Exchange form from their office. The following instructions are for course evaluations only.  Please follow the direction of the Exchange Office on the steps to become a Visiting student on Exchange. 

Next, you must complete the following steps for course evaluation:  

  1. Review the University you plan to attend and locate the courses available to Visiting Students. 
    In most cases, not all courses offered by the host institution will be available to you.  
  2. Make a list of all of the courses you wish to have reviewed.   
    Choose more courses than you plan to study so that you have options should any be denied or unavailable by the time you register. 
  3. Download a copy of the Full, detailed course syllabi from the host University for each course you wish to have evaluated. This must be the current version to be eligible for review.  Old syllabi will be rejected. 
  4. Complete the top portion of the Exchange Form and sign the bottom.  Leave the table blank for now.
  5. Submit your Exchange form and course syllabi to the Help Portal.  
  6. Once we have completed our review, we will return the form to you on the Help Portal and notify you of the results of our evaluation.  
    If there are any courses not offered by our Department, we will direct you to the relevant Departments for their approval. DAN Department of Management & Organizational Studies Advisors will only evaluate courses that fall under our scope.
  7. Once all courses have been approved by the relevant Departments, you must submit your form and descriptions to the Academic Counsellors via their Help Portal for review and final approval.  DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!   
    Your Exchange Request is not complete until you have received the Faculty/Academic Counsellor approval. 
  8. Follow the next steps in attending a University abroad as directed by the Exchange Office. 
  9. In some cases, courses become unavailable after you have left for your exchange.  We will review additional courses through the Help Portal.  Be sure to reach out to us for assistance or advice! 

 

If I decide to attend an exchange program in my final year, when I can graduate?
