Choosing a Program

There are many international opportunities, varying in length, cost, number of courses, amount of travelling, structure, and more!
The following questions are primarily intended to help you choose appropriate exchange program. 

Academics

How does the program fit with your degree requirements?
Is academic credit possible? Who issues the transcript and are they an accredited institution?
How does the program's curriculum benefit from the host environment?

Costs

What does the program fee cover? What does it not cover?
Does the program offer any financial aid? 
What are the refund and cancellation policies?

Logistics

When does the program start? How long is it?
What will the accommodation be like (university residence, hotels, hostels)?
What do you want out of the program (e.g., an internship, field work, home stay)?

Reputation

Do you know anyone who has been on the program before?
Have we heard of it? 
Is the program on Facebook, Twitter, or other social media? What do you see?
Have you found any reviews of the program online? 

Many of these questions do not have a right or a wrong answer, but we encourage you to discuss your options carefully. If you would like to discuss your options further, please visit us at the International Office, Trg oslobodjenja – Alija Izetbegovic, first floor, office 29.
