Exchange programs are offered during the fall and spring semester (2-12 week summer options are available on a limited basis) and allow ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥¼ä to enroll in a host institution abroad.

For direct enroll partner programs, ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥¼ä enroll, register, and pay as international ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥¼ä at the host institution. Coursework is offered in English or the local language, and courses are pre-approved and applied as transfer work upon successful completion.

Once ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥¼ä have reviewed FAU study abroad options, they may consider applying to a third-party program, which includes but is not limited to study abroad providers, other U.S. college/university study abroad programs, or a foreign institution abroad with whom FAU is not a direct enroll partner. FAU is committed to supporting all ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥¼ä in achieving their study abroad goals and provides support services for these options as well. If a student is interested in having coursework pre-approved for transfer credit at FAU, we will do our best to get courses pre-approved. It will be the responsibility of the student to collect course syllabi from the program provider. If a student wishes to access federal financial aid options, then a FAU Financial Aid Consortium Agreement will need to be completed.
