To find out what courses are offered at which universities, please check the individual program pages for available courses.</p> <p>In order to provide the most up-to-date course details, interstudy has found it best to refer students directly to the course listings provided by each program institution. All course pre-registration is done through interstudy. Courses are chosen as part of the interstudy application. If you cannot find the courses you are looking for, please contact us and we can send you listings for specific courses via email. Students are free to select any preferred combination of courses from the listings available on the individual program page. Provisional selection should be made using the Pre-Selection grid on the interstudy application.</p> <br /> <div class="students_package_subtitle"><img src="/images/icons/icon_list_square_content.gif" border="0" alt="" /> <h4 style="display:inline;"><strong>Credits</strong></h4> </div> <span class="no_up_border"> <p>The credits you earn on an interstudy programs should transfer back to your home university and may count towards your degree. We think it's important to ensure that you are on the right track even while abroad.</p> <p>When you apply to the interstudy program, you are asked to fill out a couple of things. One is the The General Information section of the application which shows you have approval from your home institution to study abroad with us. Usually your Study Abroad advisor signs this, but at some schools, where there is no study abroad office, your regular academic advisor signs the form. This means your home institution knows that you are going to study abroad and then return to regular classes the following semester.</p> <br /> <div class="students_package_subtitle"><img src="/images/icons/icon_list_square_content.gif" border="0" alt="" /> <h4 style="display:inline;"><strong>Selection</strong></h4> </div> <span class="no_up_border"> <p>Next, you will fill out the Course Pre-Selection section of the interstudy application. This is where you will pre-register with interstudy for your classes abroad. We ask that you select eight choices for each program you are interested in to give you back up selections just in case some of your courses are not available.* <br /><br />You can find classes for your program on the individual program page of this site. As you select courses, print out the descriptions and bring them in to your advisor. This way you can be sure in advance that the courses you select will transfer accordingly. If you can't find the course descriptions you want on-line, contact interstudy and we can get you copies of the course catalog for the subjects you are interested in.</p> <p> </p> <p><em>*As our programs are direct enrollment, changes in course offerings can occur -- classes may not be running or conflicts in scheduling or timetabling may crop up, just like at your home university. Therefore, we cannot guarantee any courses 100%. We do all that we can to arrange your courses before you arrive overseas, and if there is a specific course that you absolutely have to have in order to graduate we often can inquire with the University specifically. Individual arrangements can be made for you to ensure that you get the classes you need. There is always a standard Add/Drop period in which you can modify your course choices once you arrive at your host institution.</em></p> </span></span></span></div> </div> 2009-01-22T23:47:12Z 5 Academics 4
