The student exchange program allows you to study abroad for a term or full academic year at one of 70 exchange partner institutions around the world. As an exchange student, you'll pay tuition to Laurier and earn credits towards your Laurier degree. While studying abroad, you'll have the opportunity to build your intercultural skills and knowledge, experience new social and cultural environments, and create lasting friendships.
We also support you every step of the way with support and guidance before, during and after the application process, as well as with pre-departure sessions and gatherings for returning exchange students.
It's never too early to start planning to go on exchange! Attend an information session to learn more about exchange and the application process, and submit your application by the following deadlines:
