Exchange vs Direct? Exchanges are some of the

most affordable programs available

Exchanges have “chance of placement” for each program

85% of exchange students are placed in their top choice

Exchange vs Direct? Exchange students are

placed according to:– Academic suitability of site chosen

– Quality of the application (essays, letters of recommendation, GPA)

– Spots available vs amount of applicants applying to that site

Exchange vs Direct? Direct sites are typically

more expensive since you pay host tuition

Direct spots are guaranteed for the site you choose
