Carleton University offers an Exchange Program with approximately 110 partner institutions in more than 30 countries around the globe. This is an opportunity for students (undergraduate and graduate) to study full-time at a partner institution for a single term (fall or winter) or for a full academic year. Exchange students pay tuition to Carleton University and earn credits toward their Carleton degree.
Participating in an exchange is an incredibly rewarding experience, as this is a chance to truly immerse yourself in a new culture, experience your academic subject through a new lens, and develop intercultural skills (which are of increasing value to employers).
Applications for 2024-2025 are now closed. The next exchange application session will be open October 2024 for the Fall 2025 – Winter 2026 academic year. As you prepare for your exchange journey, follow along the steps outlined in our Roadmap to Exchange (PDF).
