An Educational Exchange Program (or reciprocal exchange program) is similar to the independent study abroad. Students do not pay tuition at the international institution due to the exchange. Students enroll at TAMU and take courses at international universities delivered by the international universities faculty. Except for Brazil, students are not required to know a foreign language because the courses conducted at international universities are taught in English. Students that command a foreign language may choose to participate in programs delivered in languages other than English. Once students return to TAMU, they check with their advisor to make sure credits are transferred back to TAMU. The college has programs at the following international institutions:
