Most students go on exchange during Term 1 of fourth year, although there are some opportunities for students to participate in the exchange program during the third year. Students who participate in the Summer Programs must have a least completed second-year University. Students who are selected to go abroad are required to meet with an advisor in the Undergraduate Office prior to their departure to assess their final study plan, which reflects the actual information on the course offerings during the exchange term. Summer Program participants should also meet with an advisor prior to departure to map out the UBC B.Com. degree requirements. Transfer credit will be assessed upon the receipt of the transcript from the exchange partner university.
