Exchange landing page

Manchester Metropolitan University welcomes over 300 visiting students each year from across the world. We offer a range of student exchange programmes, from two weeks to 12 months. 

If you are currently studying at university in your home country and would like to experience studying and living in the UK, Manchester Metropolitan University can offer you a range of opportunities.

If there is an existing student exchange arrangement with your home university, you may be able to study with us as an exchange student. If we do not have an agreement with your home university, you will still be able to study with us independently through our Study Abroad programme and International Summer Schools.

Our programmes give you a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience life and study somewhere new, and can bring many benefits. 

We look forward to welcoming you to Manchester.
