Terms and Conditions

By submitting this application, you agree to the following terms and conditions:

I am an ambassador for the Ivey Business School and will adhere to the Ivey Student Code of Professional Conduct while I am studying abroad at one of our partner exchange schools.
I confirm that my remaining Ivey tuition and fees will be paid by the December deadline, before going on exchange.
I understand that I will NOT graduate/convocate until Western's October convocation ceremony following the successful completion of my exchange semester.
I acknowledge that professors will be consulted in my candidacy for exchange.
My official transcript and/or diplomas may NOT be requested any sooner than 4 weeks prior to Western's October Convocation Ceremony as per Western's Policy and I acknowledge that this timing may have implications on my employment start date (especially in the United States).
Failure of any course while on exchange will mean I will NOT receive my Ivey HBA degree.
A completed Learning Agreement will be approved and signed by both my home school exchange coordinator and exchange school coordinator prior to the end of a final add/drop period at my specific exchange school.

Exchange School Choices

Please list up to 5 exchange school choices. Exchange is not guaranteed as placements are limited for each school, therefore, the more flexibility you offer, the greater your chances of receiving a placement offer. It is RECOMMENDED but not REQUIRED that you choose 1 school from each of our 4 global sectors (please use this chart as reference).

Essay Questions

1. Why do you wish to be considered for an international learning program? (Discuss academic, professional and personal reasons) (125-word maximum)

2. Please list any extracurricular, volunteer or work activities throughout your University experience that best demonstrate your commitment to being a Global Citizen. (125-word maximum)

3. Did you attend the Special Presentation on Exchange or Attend the Exchange Fair? If no, why not? If yes, talk about your experience and what you learned here.

4. Do you think that students should go on exchange to countries/cultures they are familiar with or unfamiliar with? Why or why not? (125-word maximum)

5. You have been accepted to go on exchange and your semester dates are from February 1 – July 1. In October, you get a job offer for your dream job but they want you to start on June 15th while you are on exchange. How would you react? (125-word maximum)

6. You have been accepted to go on exchange and after reading the factsheet, you assume your semester dates are from February 1 – May 27. In October, when filling out the application and registering for classes, you realize that you’ve made a mistake and the semester actually starts in January, not February. You’ve already made plans to go on a big family vacation in January and it’s non-refundable. How would you react? (125-word maximum)

7. After arriving at your exchange school, you’re finding that you are talking to your family everyday, declining invitations to go out and staying primarily in your dorm room. The food is not great, and it’s much colder than you thought it would be. You feel very uncomfortable, isolated and struggling with your sleep. You’re experiencing culture shock. How would you react? (125-word maximum)

8. Please list your top choice schools (can be first choice, top 3 or all of your 5 preferences) and reasons why you want to attend. Please provide one school/country you would NOT want to attend and tell us why. (125-word maximum)

Accommodation or Accessibility Services

If you require accommodations or accessibility services while abroad, we invite you to investigate and plan for any potential needs in preparation for a successful international learning experience.

Students with disabilities who are seeking academic accommodation have the responsibility to promptly notify academic staff and Student Accessibility Services if they need accommodation for any international learning opportunity during the school year according to the Western University Policy on Academic Accommodation for Students with Disabilities.

Students with disabilities may also have other accessibility needs and require services to support them with those needs while abroad. It is important to note that the availability of services abroad vary quite broadly between partner institutions/organizations, geographical locations, etc. As such, Ivey and Western International is committed to serve as a resource for students with accommodation and/or accessibility requirements who are researching options for international learning experiences.

The International Experiences Considerations Checklist is a resource to help identify some issues that may need further investigating and planning. The considerations listed are not all encompassing; additional considerations may emerge.

If you wish to discuss any accommodation and/or accessibility needs for your international learning experience, please Contact Ivey International to schedule a meeting with our Exchange Coordinator.
