Which classes will I be able to take at UNT?

You are welcome to choose a full schedule of courses from the UNT catalog and the appropriate semester's Schedule of Classes, also available at the exchange/study abroad office at your university. Students usually take 12-18 credit hours per semester. Enrollment in a minimum of 12 hours (usually four classes per semester) is a visa requirement. Most classes are 3-credit, although some areas of study have 1, 2, or 4-credit classes. You should bring with you a list of UNT classes selected in conjunction with your home institution academic advisor for the semesters which you plan to attend, and we will attempt to place you in each of the classes you request.

The Study Abroad Center will set up advising sessions for all incoming exchange students with the various departmental advisors and register you for classes from our office. Your grades will be reported to our office and then forwarded to your home university.

How much will textbooks and study materials cost?

UNT estimates that an average student spends approximately $800 on textbooks and study materials each academic year. Although some textbooks are in the library, most must be purchased. Used textbooks are available for purchase at the university bookstores, but they tend to sell out rather quickly. Textbooks can be sold back to the bookstores for a percentage of the price paid.
