Virtual: Lunch & Learn for National Student Exchange (NSE)

[Brooke Layhee]

Colleagues,

The study away team is ramping up the promotion of the National Student
Exchange (NSE) program
<https://www.plattsburgh.edu/academics/study-abroad-exchanges/programs/nse.html>
for the 2022/2023 academic year. Staff and faculty are key partners in
promoting this opportunity to our students and our priority deadline
is *February
25, 2022*. Read on for more information but also consider attending our
very first virtual NSE info session for Plattsburgh staff and faculty:

                                                    *Wednesday, January 19*
*                                               12 pm - 1 pm*
                                               Register Here

*Over the last few years, here are where our students have studied:*

   - Alabama State University
   - California State University, East Bay
   - California State University, San Bernardino
   - Florida International University
   - Montana State University
   - Montclair State University
   - North Carolina Central University
   - Queens College, CUNY
   - Rutgers School of Arts and Sciences
   - Stony Brook University
   - Southern Oregon University
   - University of Colorado Springs
   - University of Hawaii at Hilo
   - University of Hawaii at Manoa
   - University of Massachusetts-Amherst
   - University of New Mexico
   - University of New Orleans
   - University of the Virgin Islands, St. Croix
   - Utah Valley University
   - Western Oregon University

*Why do students participate?*

   - *broaden their educational perspective* by taking classes not
   available at the Plattsburgh
   - *network at a future graduate school or in a different job market*
   - *get outside** their comfort zone*...For some students, NSE is the
   first time they have traveled away from home.
   - *study at a more diverse campus*...NSE includes HBCUs
   <https://nse.org/exchange/destination/HBCU/>, HSIs (Hispanic Serving
   Institutions, including 12 in Puerto Rico
   <https://nse.org/exchange/destination/puerto-rico/>), and AANAPISIs
   (Asian-American, Native American, & Pacific Islander Serving
   Institutions).
   - *experience the geographic diversity of North America*...Many students
   choose a campus near the beach
   <https://nse.org/exchange/destination/beaches/> or the mountains
   <https://nse.org/exchange/destination/mountains/>!
   - *adventure, excitement, fresh perspective and new friends!*
   - *grow beyond the North Country!*
   - *NSE is affordable*...Students pay their usual tuition to Plattsburgh
   (Home Pay) or in a few cases pay the resident-rate tuition to their host
   campus (Host Pay) AND most financial aid and scholarships follow students
   on exchange

Please reach out if you have any questions about NSE or if you want to
partner to promote NSE to your students. I hope to see you at our virtual
NSE info session for staff and faculty.
