The Colleges are part of two consortia, one for North India and one for the Dominican Republic. The North India group includes Bard, Skidmore, St. Lawrence, and Hartwick; the Dominican Republic group includes Colgate, Macalester, and the University of Illinois at Chicago.

There are other opportunities for Hobart and William Smith students to gain international experience and awareness. With special permission, students in recent years have also studied in Austria, Chile, England, France, Germany, Holland, Israel, Italy, Scandinavia, and Spain through independent arrangements with foreign universities, other U.S. university programs, or special institutes.

STUDENT EXCHANGES
The Colleges have official exchange agreements with the following institutions:
  1. Curtin University of Technology, Perth, Australia (Fall or Spring)
  2. Tokyo Woman's Christian University, Tokyo, Japan (for William Smith students only) (Full Year or Spring)
  3. The University of Tuebingen, Tuebingen, Germany (Full Year or Spring) 4.
  4. Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea (Fall, Spring or Full Year)

Please note the following characteristics of all the exchanges:

ACCOMMODATIONS: Students will be assisted with housing at the partner school. Options usually include university dormitory space at modest prices, homestay possibilities, and private apartments.

ELIGIBILITY: Because the number of spaces on exchanges are very limited (usually no more that two or three per term) applicants should have a solid GPA--3.0 or above and a strong personal statement that outlines clearly why participation in the exchange would help to fulfill academic and personal goals.

APPROXIMATE COSTS: On all exchanges participants pay their normal tuition here at HWS and no tuition at the exchange school. Living costs are the responsibility of the student, but financial aid can be applied toward these costs in the same way as it is at home. Additional expenses include airfare, personal travel, entertainment, books, etc.

For more information on the student exchanges between Hobart and William Smith Colleges and the above overseas institutions please stop by the Office of Off-Campus Programs.
