Only one-third of the RSM student body is Dutch in origin. Each Fall approximately 40 exchange students from around the world join 80 in-resident RSM students for enrollment in the Third Semester of RSM's International MBA program, which focuses on the international business environment in general, and on the European business environment in particular. Twenty other foreign schools besides Texas participate in the exchange. Options vary from year to year. While the MBI classes each transfer as 3 hours of UT credit and the project can also transfer as 3 hours, the shorter block electives count as 1.5 hours each.
All housing is off-campus and is arranged by the school.
Students must register for residency permits with the police upon arrival in Rotterdam.
