Chance of Placement - 1st Choice Campus

Nearly 85% of NSE applicants are placed at their first-choice campus. Review this page to understand the placement process. Below is a guide for understanding the chance of placement at each campus you may be considering. Campuses establish individual exchange acceptance policies:

  • Applicants must meet general NSE eligibility requirements.
  • Every campus may have additional requirements, preferences, and restrictions. Carefully read the campus profile of your first-choice campus.
  • Some campuses require a balance of incoming and outgoing students. Other campuses do not have such restrictions.
  • Your personal accomplishments (high GPA) generally do not impact your chance of placement unless required as a condition of eligibility.

Your home campus NSE Coordinator can help you understand your chance of placement at your first-choice school. ALL applicants are encouraged to choose 1-3 alternate schools.

Use this KEY as a guide to choose a first-choice campus. If your first-choice campus does not have an "OPEN" chance of placement, we encourage you to choose 1-3 alternate campuses. Use this page to make sure you choose solid alternate options.
