Exchange programs allow MacEwan students to study at one of our exchange partner universities for a term or a year, all while paying their regular tuition to MacEwan. Students may receive credit toward their degree during this time. As the details of exchange programs differ for each partner university, you must meet with a study abroad advisor to discuss the best options for you. We are always adding new partner universities, so check our website often to see if there’s a new program for you.
Appointments to speak with a study abroad advisor can be made by calling 780-497-5397 or dropping by MacEwan International.
