| Application
Procedures for Exchange Students |
| ISEP: |
Applicants
for ISEP apply through their ISEP Coordinator.
ISEP will make placement recommendations and
forward the ISEP application to NMSU. Once confirmed
by NMSU for placement, follow the official admission
procedures described below to finalize admission
to NMSU.
|
| Non-ISEP: |
Print
and fill out the non-degree exchange application
and have your international exchange coordinator
send it with official transcripts and a letter
that states you are the institution's nominee
for the exchange. If English is not your native
language, also submit an official TOEFL score.
(If allowed by the exchange agreement to apply
for degree status, fill out the International
Admission
Form instead of the non-degree exchange
admission form.)
|
| Official
Admission Procedures: |
Fill
out the appropriate Non-degree Exchange Admission
Form or International Admission
Form (degree status), scan, and
attach to an e-mail to the Study
Aboad Advisor. (If you cannot scan, fax to
505-646-3482.) If not submitted previous to filling
out the NMSU admission form, send all required
supporting documents such as transcripts, TOEFL
results, and verification of financial means.
Students are admitted as non-degree undergraduates in the College in which the
majority of their courses will be taken. Students with no concentration of studies
will be placed in the College of Arts and Sciences. To be admitted with
graduate student status, international students must have completed an undergraduate
degree that is recognized by the NMSU Graduate School. |
| Deadlines: |
| As
a rule, applications for exchanges should be received
by October 15 for Spring Semester (January)
start, and by March 15 for Fall Semester (August)
start. To apply after those dates, your international
coordinator will have to contact the Director for
permission to submit a late application. Mail applications
to Office of Study Abroad, MSC 3567, Box 30001,
Las Cruces, NM 88003. We need the original non-degree
exchange application with your signature in
order to admit you officially to the university
and give you international exchange status. |
| Graduate
students: |
NMSU
admits graduate students on exchange. Students
wanting to enroll as graduate students must prove
that they meet the graduate student admission
requirements of NMSU. Graduate students will
have to fill out the International Student Admission
form if they are seeking degree status while
on exchange (only ISEP or other exchanges are
approved for degree status).
