Program Description:

At times, a partner institution will suspend us sending students on an exchange program due to an imbalance in numbers. When this occurs, historical data supports that the exchange partner prevents W&M from sending exchange students for the foreseeable future. If our exchange partner university is willing to accept students directly, the GEO is able to arrange for students to apply as assisted enroll students. Assisted enroll means tuition, fees, accommodation and meals are paid in Adelaide. Currently assisted enroll is the only option for the University of Adelaide.
