Exchange Program (Two Semesters)
La Trobe University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Non-accredited courses
CRICOS: 00115M
Our exchange program allows you to travel abroad and study at the same time for a semester or two at one of our overseas partnered universities. While you go to study at a partner university, one of their students will come and study with us. As a result, you will be exempted from paying additional tuition fees to your host university, and you will continue to pay your La Trobe fees as you do now. Then use your pre-approved subjects to gain credits back into your La Trobe degree when you return. Regardless if you are a domestic or international student, all students can apply and have access to many grants or scholarships to support you while you are overseas. Exchange gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in another culture by living like a local for several months. You could even spend one semester in one country and a second semester in another. There are few opportunities in life to live abroad, so this truly is the opportunity of a lifetime!
