Why should I go on an international exchange?
The reasons to go on an international exchange are many, including satisfying your desire for adventure, experiencing another culture and learning self-reliance. We often hear from our students that their international exchange taught them about themselves and broadened their perspectives. Don't take our word for it — go on an international exchange and find out for yourself.
What's involved and how can I go?
The International Centre offers full-semester and summer exchanges at more than 46 partner universities throughout the world.
Eligibility requirements
To qualify for an undergraduate exchange you must be:
- a full-time University of Lethbridge student;
