Exchange students are either UNZA studying aboard or international students studying at UNZA. In all cases, the exchange is done under the terms and conditions set in a formal MOU signed off between UNZA and a partner University. Usually fees are waived, and students remain enrolled at their home university (and pay their usual fees to the home university). Exchange students are expected to return to the home University, course credits are transferred when appropriate and approved and the student graduates from the home University.
