Studying Overseas
When students are studying overseas at a partner institution they must remain enrolled at SCU in International Exchange Units.
It is recommended when you arrive overseas that you check your enrollment at SCU is correct. If your enrollment is not correct please let Student Services know as soon as possible.
Changing Subjects
It does happen that students have to or want to change their subject selection when they arrive overseas. Please remember that you only have approval for the subjects which were signed off by your course co-oridinator. Any changes will need to approved in writing by your course co-ordinator, you can find an amended credit tranfer agreement at the document downloads page.
In case of emergency
Unexpected things happen when you are overseas, it is part of the fun of travel. However, if you find yourself in an unsafe or dangerous position take action quickly. The best place to seek immediate advice is at your host institution; they will generally have a support team as we do at SCU to help you. It is also recommended that you register your location with the Australian Consulate so that they are able to contact you in emergency situtations. To register with the Australian Consulate go to:

Traveling
Be ensure you have all required visas for any countries you travel to whilst you are on exchange.
