Spending a term, semester or year abroad is a chance to immerse yourself in a new culture, take classes at a host university and connect with students worldwide. Oregon State University College of Forestry offers two main options:
Designed for students who want the fullest cultural and academic immersion. You’ll study as if you were a local student, while keeping costs manageable by paying OSU tuition through a reciprocal exchange.
Designed to provide students with flexible and structured support while still gaining an authentic international experience. These programs fit a wide range of schedules and are open to all students, including Ecampus students.
Note: This page is for current OSU students. Incoming exchange students should visit the Incoming Exchange Students page.
