Frequently Asked Questions

Exchange Program students are those who apply through an existing agreement between their university and Tecnológico de Monterrey. In order to be able to apply for this program you must be nominated first by your International Programs Office. In most cases, the tuition fee is paid directly in the home universities.

Independent Program students are those students who apply from universities that do not have a valid exchange agreement with Tecnológico de Monterrey. Students who apply as independent will need to pay tuition fees directly to Tecnológico de Monterrey.

There are generally three different types of accommodation:

• Accommodation at college residences (campuses that offer this option).

• Independent accommodation (you are responsible for finding your own accommodation. The campuses can suggest some options).
