UNSW actively encourages all students to take part of their degree program overseas through formal reciprocal exchange agreements with over 160 universities in 34 countries. Under the program, students can spend one or two semesters at a university in Asia, Europe, USA, India, Canada, or Latin America. Studies completed at the overseas university are credited towards the UNSW degree.

Local and international undergraduate and postgraduate students with a satisfactory academic record may apply to participate in the exchange program after one semester of study at UNSW. During their period of exchange, students remain enrolled at UNSW and pay normal activity fees and student contributions, local or international fees. The overseas university waives tuition fees for exchange students, but students are responsible for their own travel, accommodation and living expenses.

Given the objectives of Exchange programs, and reciprocal agreements with partner institutions, students are required to enrol in a full-time 24 unit exchange program. Students are usually enrolled in a 24 unit of credit exchange course that relates to the faculty that administers their degree program, and will be charged the corresponding Student Contribution amount (for Commonwealth supported students) or UNSW tuition fees (for fee-paying students). Where combined degree program students are approved to take their exchange in areas related to both component degrees, enrolment will be in equivalent 12 unit of credit courses, on the same fee principles. Please refer to Fee Band above for more information.
