What
is the deadline?
The exact deadline varies every year,
but it is usually in mid- February.
How do I know if I was placed at the university
of my choice?
Students are placed during the National
NSE Conference in early to mid-March every year. After the Conference
students will
be notify of their placement by an official UNM NSE letter by mail
or by e-mail, or you can call the UNM NSE office at 277-3361 after
the completion of the NSE Placement Conference.
How are the students selected for placement?
Student exchange rankings for placements
at competitive schools are based on references, GPA, and letters of
intent.
How long is the exchange?
Traditionally, students participate in the
exchange program for two semesters. Students can participate for
one semester, should the host school allow single semester exchanges.
Can I attend two separate schools, as long as
I do not go beyond my two semester eligibility?
Yes, but please speak to the NSE Coordinator
for details, because this process is a little more complicated.
Can I withdraw after applying? How about after I've
been placed?
You can withdraw from the NSE program at
any time; however, you will forfeit your $150.00 application fee.
How do I receive my financial aid while on exchange?
Any financial aid beyond tuition can be direct
deposited into your bank account. You will just need to set this up via
your LOBOWEB Account.
