UT Exchange and Partner Programs

There are two ways to view our exchange and partner institutions. Please follow the directions below to browse programs and narrow down which school interests you most:

1. Access the UT Study Abroad Portal via MyUtampa.

• On the Programs page filter by Program Type: Exchange to see our Exchange Programs.
• On the Programs page filter by Program Type: Study Abroad to see our partner programs**

**Please note: the Study Abroad filter also includes our Affiliate Programs. The University of Tampa partner programs are indicated in red on the top left-hand side of the program banner image.

2. Click on the Exchange and Partner Institutions page to view our programs. Click on the link of a program that interests you to be routed directly to the program page in the UT Study Abroad Portal.

Once a student selects a program in the portal and submits an application profile, the Education Abroad staff conducts an eligibility review. If eligible for your selected program, you will be conditionally approved and given access to a series of application forms to complete. You will remain conditionally approved until all application forms are completed by the final form submission deadline.

• One of the forms in your application, entitled Course Approval Process, will provide instructions on how to access the Study Abroad Course Approval portal. Students will need to use this portal to get approval for their study abroad courses and create their transient form. Carefully follow the instructions in the video tutorial before utilizing the platform.
• Access the Study Abroad Course Approval portal and view the historically approved courses of your selected institution and check if any of the approved courses could apply to your degree requirements. For courses that have not yet been approved, you must go through the course approval process outlined in the Video Tutorial.
• Please note: This component of your application has its own deadlines. Please make it a priority to complete it on time.
• Remember, while abroad you should take courses towards your major, minor or elective requirements. What’s important is that the courses taken abroad somehow fulfill the requirements towards your degree.
• The International Programs Office cannot guarantee a particular university will have all the courses you need. 

Submit all required application profiles by the appropriate deadline:

• April 1- Fall semester programs
• Oct. 1 - Spring semester programs

Submit all required final application forms by the appropriate deadlines:

• May 1 - Fall semester programs
• Nov. 15- Spring semester programs

The International Programs Office reviews submitted applications.

• Once you have submitted your application profile, the IPO will schedule you for a one-on-one advising session with your EA advisor to familiarize you with the rest of the application process. This may not be required if you have already met with an advisor before submitting your application profile. Currently, we require advising for all Exchange Programs which includes:
  
  
  • BI Norwegian Business School
  • EDHEC Business School
  • Frankfurt School of Finance and Management
  • Kansai Gaidai University
  • Rennes School of Business
  • Sciences Po Aix
  • Sciences Po Rennes
  • Universidad Carlos III de Madrid
  • WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management

Once your courses have been approved, you may be nominated to the Exchange and Partner program. Your application status will change to Nominated and the International Programs Office will provide you with the next steps shortly thereafter.

Once you have been officially nominated, you will begin the host university application. You will be notified by the host institution and informed of their application process and deadlines, which you must follow in order to be officially admitted to their program.

Our office will provide you with a consulate letter and your host institution will provide you with an acceptance letter to help you get your visa, if required for your country of study. The host institution should orient you to the visa process for your selected destination.

You will be required to attend a mandatory orientation session prior to your departure abroad. If you do not attend this session you will be withdrawn from your study abroad program.
