The University of Otago's Student Exchange Programme provides the opportunity to study for one semester, or two, at an internationally recognised partner university. Students pay their normal tuition fees to the University of Otago and study internationally.
Have you have ever thought of living and studying overseas but were unable to afford it because of the high cost of international student fees? This may be your answer! The Otago Business School has very generous travel scholarships to help you realise your dreams of going on an international student exchange.
Where can I study overseas?
There are over 55 different universities in 30 different countries that offer Otago Business School students the opportunity to live and study for either one or two semesters. You can even choose to go on exchange for two semesters – but spend each semester at a different university in a different country.

One of the great things about going on exchange to one of our partner business schools is that the majority of them teach their courses in English!
