International Incoming Students - Waterford Institute of Technology

International Exchange Programme (Non EU)

WIT has been heavily involved in the European Union’s Erasmus Exchange scheme for many years and has bilateral agreements with over 40 Universities in almost all countries of the EU. It is now using this experience to develop similar schemes with institutions in the USA and Canada. Successful bilateral exchange agreements have already been established between WIT and universities in the USA and Canada in the past number of years. Such arrangements must be bilateral with similar numbers of students moving in each direction.

Students pay normal tuition fees to their own institution.
Students pay for their own travel and for food and accommodation at the normal rates of the host institution.
