Once you decide to participate in NSE, your hardest decision will be deciding where you would like to go for that semester or year on exchange. Participating institutions vary greatly as to location, size, and types of programs, which means that there is something to appeal to almost everyone. Warm weather locales include the University of Hawaii at Manoa and at Hilo, six sites in Puerto Rico, and the University of the Virgin Islands. If you prefer a colder clime, maybe one of the three exchange sites in Alaska will appeal to you.
Some students prefer a small town or rural setting.
Many NSE campuses fit that bill, including universities in Colorado near wonderful ski areas. Remember that once your application for exchange is approved on the UNT campus, your NSE coordinator will try to arrange your placement.
