visiting student at a school

<p>are there any programs from top universities that allow students to enroll as a visiting student for a year? so not quite a transfer, but just a year being a student there then return to their home institution. If so, which schools offer this? Thanks.</p>

<p>I think Columbia has this for a semester at least and maybe NYU too...</p>

<p>Many top unis allow that if they have available seats, but it's a very expensive proposition b/c you will likely end up paying tuition at both places.</p>

<p>Almost all colleges host visiting students.</p>
