Select the foreign program of interest to you. Coordinate the matter of
credit acceptance with your home school or employer in advance.
A.
If your home school accepts credit directly from the foreign school,
register for study abroad by returning the completed NRCSA
PreRegistration Form and deposit to NRCSA. Coordinate credit
requirements with your home school.
B. If your home school will not accept
credit from abroad and wants you to work through a US sponsoring
university, advise NRCSA which foreign school you wish to attend. NRCSA
will send you the administrative requirements of the US universities
working with that foreign school (different US schools work with
different foreign schools).
- If
you appear to meet those requirements (including admission deadlines),
first complete and return the NRCSA Preregistration Form to NRCSA with
your deposit and a note stating your academic needs.
- Upon
acceptance by the foreign school, you will be given instructions to
also register with the corresponding US university. (If your
application is denied by the US university due to your grade-point or
lack of prerequisites, your foreign school deposit will be refunded in
full.
- You
will relate to NRCSA for foreign program information and the US
university for credit/transfer credit issues and requirements.
- The
entire process can usually be completed in a few weeks assuming you
have the necessary background to take the selected courses abroad.
