Alpine setting. AYA students are served by a resident academic director
and take part in numerous activities and field trips throughout their

Council for International Visitors
The Council for International Visitors of Greater New Orleans (CIV)
is a nonprofit organization that arranges professional appointments
and cultural activities for nearly 300 international leaders sent to the
greater New Orleans area each year. Many are here at the invitation of
the U.S. government through the U.S. State Department International
Visitor Program, while others are sponsored by foreign governments
or private sector organizations. The New Orleans branch belongs to a
nationwide network of 97 councils that cooperates with the National
Council for International Visitors (NCIV). CIV facilitates professional
and personal interaction for official visitors, enhances respect and
communication through international exchanges and alliances, and
promotes the city of New Orleans and the state of Louisiana as important
business and cultural centers. CIV boasts 200 members and thousands
of volunteers in the community that share their time and expertise
in meetings with international visitors. CIV offices are located in
the UNO Technology Enterprise Center.
National Student Exchange
The University is a member of National Student Exchange (NSE)
which provides opportunities for students to study for up to one calendar
year at another NSE member college or university with nonresident
fees waived. With nearly 190 universities from which to
choose, students should be able to find a campus with just the right
combination of courses, facilities, and environment to meet personal
and academic needs and interests. NSE ex-tends beyond the borders
of the United States to include U.S. territories as well as Canadian
provinces. Students must be at least sophomore level (30 credit hours)
with a minimum 2.5 GPA at the time of the exchange. Students meet
with their UNO advisors prior to the exchange to assure that all credit
completed while on exchange will transfer toward their UNO degree
program. Information and applications for the exchange are available
at the General Studies Program Office in room 214 of the Bicentennial
Education Center, or in the Registrar’s Office in room 112 of
the Administration Building. Additional information concerning the
NSE Program and all partner universities may be obtained at http://
