Academic culture

Degree system/structure of study at host (e.g. that General Education does not exist at the host and local students focus on their major from the get-go); could also talk about how local students do not go away to study. Instead they usually study at the university in their hometown and live at home so campus culture is different than the residential environment of UCs.

Classes: (class sizes, teaching style (lectures vs. discussions), expectations (e.g. the fact that students are expected to keep up with readings but assessment or homework assignments don’t happen throughout the semester), availability of syllabi, meeting with professors (office hours?), and attendance policy if there is one.

Registration: not a detailed description of the process but rather, an explanation of whether it is standard practice for local students to over-enroll in courses, “shop” their courses for the first few weeks, then finalize their course schedule during the add/drop period.

Exams: (typical format, whether final grades are based mostly on the final grade, if students need to meet a minimum grade in order to sit the exam, and UCEAP policy on requesting early exams (if an early exit program).
