Student exchanges
These exchange programs are fully integrated into programs of study at the home university and Université Laval. Joint course offerings are negotiated based on a history of cooperation between the institutions and program directors. Administrative procedures are generally streamlined. This is Université Laval’s preferred method for organizing student exchanges.

Partner institutions are responsible for selecting the students who will participate in exchanges at Université Laval. However, admission to Université Laval is not automatic. Applications must first be reviewed by the directors of the programs applied for.
