About Exchange

An exchange gives you the opportunity to study for one semester at a university or college that has an exchange agreement with Langara College. As an exchange student, you will pay tuition to Langara College and transfer the credits you earn back to your Langara transcript. (Note: The granting of transfer credit will depend on which courses you take at Tokiwa. Any transfer credits granted by Langara may not be transferable to other Canadian institutions.)

The exchange will be one semester long. The fall semester runs from September to December Students arrive in Japan for an orientation/registration week at the beginning of the term (dates to be confirmed).
