STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAMS

Transcription

1 STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAMS A student exchange program between Indian institutions and foreign universities is a program where students choose to study abroad in partner institutions. An exchange student could live with a host family or in a designated place including hostels, affordable apartment/house or student lodge. The cost for each program differs according to countries and institutions. The participants could either apply/receive scholarship, self-funded or apply/receive loan. Student exchanges have the aim of helping to increase the participants' understanding and tolerance of other cultures, as well as improving their language skills and broadening their social horizons. An exchange student typically stays in the host country for a relatively short period of time, often 6 to 10 months. Some students on exchange programs can receive academic credit from the country they study in. OBJECTIVES To enhance the educational experience of student To strengthen the networking between students and Universities Broaden personal and educational perspectives Explore, appreciate and understand different cultures To enhance the ability of the student in second language learning To eliminate fear and prejudice among nations Enable student to experience international education COSTS Programs vary depending upon program length, country, content and other factors. Most program costs include insurance and other risk management components, especially health insurance. Students going on university exchange could pay tuition fees on home campus or host campus, but most of the time it is paid to home campus. Long term exchange program for university student often comes with Scholarship that covers most of the expenses including flight ticket, accommodation and daily necessities. ACCOMMODATION University student going on exchange program could choose either to live on campus or off campus. Living off campus is a popular choice among student going for exchange because they would like to be independent and learn new culture on their own. Universities that host student exchange program do have special assistance for the students who seek accommodation. Institutions in India, have on-campus housing for the international student that is on exchange or studying full time. 6 October University, Egypt Student Exchange has always been a priority for 6 October University.
