Student Exchange Programme


The NUS Student Exchange Programme (SEP) provides students with the opportunity to study in an overseas partner university, usually for a semester or two, with approval of the School, to further enhance their learning experience. Students from either partner university pay fees only at their home institution while on exchange. The new experience provided by SEP is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that will enrich the life of the student forever.Some of the partner universities include Uppsala University, University of British Columbia, McGill University, University of California, University of Melbourne and University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.

"....Going on a Student Exchange Program to University of California, Davis in United States is one of the highlights of my time in NUS. The decision to embark upon this exchange program definitely took me a great deal of consideration and planning but on looking back, it has definitely been a positive and greatly enriching one..."

"..Interestingly, there is also a large proportional of foreign students, both international full time students as well as exchange students, here, which greatly adds to the vibrancy of the university community. In fact, it was pretty common to be walking around in campus and overhear conversations in Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Cantonese all around. It was truly a global university in that sense..."

“...SEP is really once-in-life experience. I had the chance to study and live with foreign students and to know their culture.
I was able to travel around and visited all the places I
dreamt about. I will never forget the five months.


Thanks to NUS and SoC for giving me this opportunity.”
