About NSE

Through this program students may take a semester or academic year to attend another fully accredited participating institution while making progress toward their University of Guam degree.
Registration Restrictions:
- UOG does offer early registration but is unable to assist students with specific course needs.

National Student Exchange (NSE) at the University of Guam
All placements for study away exchange through the National Student Exchange are administered by an NSE coordinator at your home campus. To locate the NSE office on your campus, please visit NSE Member Campuses for more information.
If you are considering an exchange to the University of Guam, please note that we will primarily accept NSE students on host pay (student pays UOG tuition) placements. A limited number of home pay (students pay tuition to their home campus) placements may be accepted. We will match the number of outgoing students we have home pay.
