Who are EAP Reciprocity students?

EAP means the Education Abroad Program, a set of reciprocal exchanges between the University of California and its partner institutions abroad. Undergraduate and graduate reciprocity students are nominated by the partner universities under the provisions of specific contractual agreements, and attend a UC campus for up to one academic year on a no-fee-exchange, non-degree basis. For more information on UC's Reciprocal Exchanges, visit the EAP systemwide website.
