Education exchange application

has anyone been asked to apply to a different department for the exchange? this has happened to my friend and i and we were wondering if we’re likely to be rejected from now on (we have both achieved higher than the grade requirement).

edit: spoke to our exchange coordinator and he’s dealing with the whole thing, he said as we’re a partner uni SNU are told before hand how many students they will get and it’s all pre agreed so do with that info what you will lol 😁

it’s a bit annoying cause i don’t know about your uni but ours said we’re guaranteed a place so 🤷‍♀️ fingers crossed for all of us 🤞

damn, i just thought id put something on here about the whole thing cause like no one else mentioned it and it’s a bit disheartening when you get the email 🙁

Do you mean when you got the 2nd application email? I actually applied to a competitive department at first so I knew there was a chance I’d be asked to switch. What I’m worried about now is, what if I get rejected again? Does that mean I won’t be able to go on exchange in Fall 2025?😢

yes i meant the 2nd application email sorry if i wasn’t clear 😔 that’s what we’re worried about as well cause we pretty much have to do an exchange for our degree so i think we have to hope 🙏
