RAMAPO FOUNDATION


National Student Exchange Expands Campus Boundaries

A grant from the Ramapo College Foundation was used to kick off the National Student Exchange program at the College and expand National Student Exchange opportunities for students. The grant includes research of colleges and universities in which Ramapo students have shown an interest, and outreach to encourage students from other schools to consider Ramapo.

Beginning with the Fall 2000 semester, Ramapo College of New Jersey students have elected to spend a semester or a full year studying at one of 161 colleges and universities in the U.S. and its territories. In return, students from those 161 institutions have the option of coming to the Ramapo campus. The National Student Exchange program makes it possible to expand the boundaries of each institution to include the courses and programs of each, and allows students to experience a diversity of people, culture, and geography. In this kick-off semester, the program placed eight students at seven universities, all in the west and south. Two students, one from Wichita State University and another from New Mexico State University, are attending Ramapo for the 2000-2001 school year.
