Outbound Study Abroad

Students can study at overseas partner universities for up to a year. Through the exchange programs, students learn a great deal to understand different cultures and look at their own culture from a different perspective. Most bi-lateral agreements allow the students to study at the partner universities without paying tuition fees to host universities and to transfer the credits they obtain to their home universities. Students are selected on the basis of their GPA, TOEIC/TOEFL/IELTS scores, study plan and statement of purpose.
