| Incoming Exchange Students
If You Plan to Study at UI for a Semester or
a Year
In this section of the website you will find information for international
students who wish to attend the University of Idaho for a summer, semester,
or year on exchange. We have included a list of our exchange partners,
our Incoming Exchange Student Application, and information regarding the documents required for acceptance (proof of
financial responsibility, etc.).
Please go to the Pre-Arrival section of this
website for details regarding applying for a visa, mandatory orientation,
housing, course registration, etc. You can also download the
Welcome Booklet (pdf)
that provides this information as well.
This information is
not intended for international students from universities with which we do
not currently have exchange agreements in place. Those students should
go to the Apply section of the
website, which provides information to international students who wish to
pursue a degree at the University of Idaho.

Exchange Student
vs. Full Degree-Seeking Student
Students who attend a university that has a reciprocal exchange agreement in
place with the University of Idaho are eligible to apply to study abroad at
the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho, generally for a semester or year
exchange.
Students then transfer their credits back to their home university for a
degree there.
If you are certain now, however, that you would like to attend the
University of Idaho in order to obtain a degree, and you have discussed this
option with your home university, it is important that you complete the full
degree-seeking application procedure prior to arriving in the United States.
Students must submit all the required admission documents to the appropriate
Admissions Office (either graduate or undergraduate), making sure to
indicate on the forms that you are an exchange student.
