Anyone have any experience with Academic Common Market?

In summary, the conversation discusses the University of Tennessee's nuclear engineering program and the potential cost savings compared to the speaker's current university. The benefits of transferring include a well-established undergraduate program, but the speaker is unsure if they will be eligible for in-state tuition until late summer. This may pose a challenge in terms of breaking their current apartment contract.

UT's nuclear engineering program?

How is UT's nuclear engineering program? What is the cost of licing like there? I am thinking about transfering there because it may be cheaper tuition than where I am at now.

To get responses, you'll probably need to specify which UT -- Tennessee or Texas (as well as which campus).

Opps, sorry. It is the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.

And to be more specific, there is a chance that I am eligible for in-state tution at UTK.

The pro's are that they have a well established undergrad NE program and it could be cheaper than where I am attending now. My current university only offers a minor in NE (so I am doing Engineering Physics).

The cons are that I will not know if I will be eligible until late summer. Unfortunately I am not sure if this leaves me much time to get out of my appartment contract I have for next year of where I am currently at.
 

FAQ: Anyone have any experience with Academic Common Market?

What is the Academic Common Market?

The Academic Common Market (ACM) is a program that allows students to pursue specialized or unique academic programs that may not be available in their home state, while paying in-state tuition rates.

How does the Academic Common Market work?

Each participating state offers a list of approved programs that are not available in-state. If a student is a resident of one of these states and is accepted into an out-of-state program, they can pay the in-state tuition rate. The student must also meet the admission and residency requirements of the state and institution offering the program.

Who is eligible for the Academic Common Market?

Students who are residents of one of the participating states and are pursuing a degree program that is not available in their home state are eligible for the ACM. They must also meet the admission and residency requirements of the state and institution offering the program.

How do I apply for the Academic Common Market?

To apply for the ACM, students must first be accepted into an out-of-state program that is approved by their home state. They must then submit an ACM application to their home state's ACM coordinator, along with any required documentation.

Are there any additional fees for participating in the Academic Common Market?

No, there are no additional fees for participating in the ACM. However, students are responsible for covering their own living expenses and any other fees associated with their chosen program.
