<p>ASSUMING I get into Mccombs next year through Internal Transfer, when should I study abroad?</p>

<p>I wanna Minor in Chinese so was interested in studying abroad in China / or Hong Kong. I know a semester exchange is no problem, but does anyone know if a year long exchange is possible? I don't believe I could fully take in the language and culture in just one semester. :/ So was just curious. I wanted to do Japan at first but they said that was just impossible because no credits would transfer. I still might try a way to get a semester or AT LEAST a summer in Japan. But that's fine if it doesn't work out. But the China thing is what I really need to know about.</p>

<p>But yeah, all I wanted to know!</p>

<p>:) If anyone has any advice on that type of thing.</p>

<p>You can easily do a Maymester in China or a summer in Hong Kong in a UT program that directly gives you UT credits.<br>

There’s a Maymester in Japan, too.

<p>There are semester long programs too, see above, but double check with a McCombs advisor to make sure that doing one of these won’t cause you to graduate later than you would have otherwise.</p>

<p>And there are UT recognized programs that are not UT programs but are recognized by UT. Some of the credits should transfer. You can investigate in advance. Even more so: these could cause you to graduate later than you would have otherwise.
