Third Party Provider Global Education Programs
Third Party Provider Global Education Programs
Participate in a Third Party Provider (TPP) Program through the Office of International Affairs (OIA)! They provide opportunities to study for a semester or summer at an institution not partnered with Fisher College of Business through the Fisher Student Exchange Program, expanding the number of locations to go abroad.
The university-approved Third Party Provider Global Education Programs allow students to go abroad on locations not offered as a Fisher Student Exchange location.
Due to the independent nature of the program, participating students will have more responsibility to coordinate all aspects of the TPP program arrangements independently with minimum assistance. Be prepared to handle the self-coordinating aspect of the program!
All applicants must meet the eligibility criteria for the individual OIA Third Party Provider Global Education Programs. Please review the links below to find eligibility information you must meet to apply.
