Important information for exchange students
How to apply.
Please note the following:
- This institution is a competitive destination and has a minimum GPA requirement of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale)
- Exchange students are expected to take a full-time load of 4 modules per semester (not allowed to take just 3)
- Undergraduate exchange only (postgraduate not possible)
Courses available for exchange students
- Recommended for Psychology
- Not recommended for Film Studies or Film & Television students unless there is flexibility with Media/English units.
- When selecting modules at Surrey, students must take courses that relate to their main degree programme. While Surrey allows for some flexibility in this if needed, e.g. taking one module outside of main area, you will need to select the majority of your modules from an area that you have experience within. For example - Surrey would recommend against non- economics students taking economics modules
- Students can use their electives to select modules from other subject areas, but in most cases, these will need to be a first year module
