Establishing a Reciprocal (Student Exchange) Agreement

Source: https://ufic.ufl.edu/Agreements-RecipProcedures.html Parent: https://ufic.ufl.edu/

Please follow the steps below to establish a reciprocal agreement:
NEGOTIATE AGREEMENT - Based on the agreement template (available on this website), the UF academic manager negotiates the terms of the agreement with the partner institution. * All agreements must be "for the benefit" of a specific college at UF. Agreements are typically not university-wide but between two colleges. - An electronic copy of the draft agreement must be sent to Susanne Hill at shill@ufic.ufl.edu for review before any further steps can be completed.
COLLEGE APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT - The academic manager prepares the Letter of Approval based on the template (available on our website). - The academic manager submits the Letter of Approval along with the agreement to his/her UF Department Chair & College Dean to obtain their approval signatures.
SUBMISSION OF AGREEMENT The academic manager submits to UFIC the following: - The Letter of Approval and agreement signed by the Dept. Chair & College Dean. - Attachment A to include the contact information for both parties. - A list of pre-approved courses from the host institution along with UF course equivalencies.
SIGNATURE OF AGREEMENT - The Dean of the UF International Center signs two original agreements on behalf of the UF President. - UFIC sends two original signed agreements to the partner institution for signatures. - The partner institution signs both original copies of the agreement, returns one to UFIC, and retains one for its files.
AGREEMENT ACTIVATION - Upon receipt by UFIC of the fully-executed agreement from the partner institution, the agreement is activated and an electronic copy is forwarded to the academic manager. - UFIC stores legal original of the agreement for UF reference and includes it on UFIC website listing.
