The University of Adelaide is committed to providing its students with opportunities to study overseas. This includes our international students.
The University offers international students the possibility of a ‘third country experience’ through a range of programs including student exchange, study tours, summer and winter schools, internships and placements. With careful planning there is no need to extend a degree, as credit usually is awarded for the study undertaken overseas. Students participating in an exchange program remain enrolled as full-time students at the University of Adelaide while overseas. Students in an exchange program continue to pay their usual tuition fees to the University of Adelaide and do not pay tuition fees at the host university. International students are encouraged to apply to participate in Global Learning experiences to add a further dimension to their University of Adelaide education. There are many exciting opportunities in the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific region and Africa.
