Exchange Programs

Exchange programs are based upon signed agreements between Baruch and its partner universities abroad. If you participate in an exchange, you will study for a semester as a visiting student at one of our partner universities. With some exceptions, you will study alongside regular degree candidates at the host institution. All of our exchange partners, even those whose language of instruction is not English, offer a number of university courses taught in English. If you meet all course prerequisites and possess the necessary language proficiency, you will have access to most fields of study at the host institution, just like any other degree candidate.

If you are nominated to study on an exchange, you pay your normal semester CUNY tuition and fees to the Baruch Bursar. You are responsible for the costs of transportation, accommodation, food and miscellaneous expenses abroad while studying on the exchange.

Support services for exchanges are provided by the host institution’s exchange or international student services office. Exchanges are best suited for students who wish to be and are capable of being self-reliant, and who wish to be more thoroughly “immersed” in the foreign academic institution.

Baruch College students apply to study as an exchange student at any one of our partner universities for a semester. Students must be nominated by Baruch College for the exchange. If you are studying abroad as an exchange student, you may petition to extend your study on the exchange for an additional semester. Information about how this may be done is available on the Students Currently Abroad web pages.
