In return, students enrolled at the University of Leeds are able to take Penn State courses that contribute to the fulfillment of their Leeds degree requirements. Participants in the program spend either the full academic year or the spring semester at the University of Leeds and enroll full-time in regular courses. Upon acceptance into the program, students plan their academic program at Leeds in consultation with their Penn State academic adviser and with International Education Programs and Studies. Grades are recorded on each student's transcript. Participants may choose from a variety of courses as listed in the latest University of Leeds module listing.
Exact registration is subject to availability of courses on site.
All courses will be accredited by Penn State. Housing accommodations, whatever option the student chooses, are paid direct to the University of Leeds Accommodation Office and are not part of the exchange agreement. The local on-site coordinator works with the Leeds Accommodation Office in making housing arrangements. The exchange program at Leeds is open to all regularly enrolled students at Penn State. Applicants must be in good academic standing, show evidence of maturity, stability, adaptability, self-discipline, and strong academic motivation.
