The Office of International Programs UAF: NSE, International Exchange and Study Abroad offer options for you to study in other educational settings at minimal additional cost. As an exchange student, you get to travel to new places and immerse yourself in another culture. You have more opportunities for personal growth and development as you encounter diverse academic programs. Exchange programs also allow exploration of graduate school and career opportunities, and look great on a resume!
Student Exchange UAF -- I had them from many states and countries. "Attend one of 47 universities outside the U.S. and pay tuition as if you're attending UAF! You're responsible for your own travel, room and board, and other living expenses. Study at Hokkaido University in Japan; Denmark's University of Copenhagen, or even in Russia at Yakutsk State University. Or travel to another circumpolar institution as a "North2North" participant."
