Study Abroad & Exchange to Tasmania

Study Abroad or Exchange?

What is the difference between study abroad and exchange? To apply as an exchange student your home institution must have an exchange agreement with UTAS. You are nominated by your university to participate in an exchange for 1 or 2 semesters maximum.

If an exchange agreement is not in place with your home institution you can apply as a study abroad student (Tuition Fees applies). All other International applicants should apply directly to International Admissions.

Admissions Requirements

To apply and be accepted as a Study Abroad and Exchange applicant you are required to:

  • Have completed a full year of University study before applying
  • Be a minimum of 18 years of age
  • Have proficient English
  • Have average of GPA 2.5 on a scale of 4.0
  • ECTS - C Average
  • Be nominated by your home institution (for exchange students)
  • If English is not your first language, provide an IELTS certificate (of no less than 2 years old) with an overall score of 6 and no band less than 5.5
Please Note

Units from the School of Nursing are only available to students from institutions that have a formal agreement with the School of Nursing at Malmo University and the Danish Schools of Nursing.

Exchange students applying for Education Programme Professional Experience units ESA198 and ESA199 must complete a Police Check before they arrive in Australia.

Choosing Units

Please Check our Courses information link for further information about choosing suitable subjects. Consult with your faculty at your home institution whether these subjects can be credited back to your home degree.

Include the subjects that you wish to obtain approval for study at UTAS on the application form. The choice of subjects cannot always be guaranteed as some subjects are cancelled, have prerequisites or have a limited student quota.

Submitting Your Form

Send your application form to the Study Abroad and Exchange Coordinator for assessment and approval. You will be given information on how to proceed through the various stages of the admission procedure either from your home institution exchange coordinator (for exchange students) or agent (study abroad students) or directly (direct study abroad applicants).

Once your application has been submitted, you should not assume that you have been accepted until you receive an official offer of enrolment. Once you've read and accepted the offer, you will receive Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) which will enable you to apply for a student visa.
