Exchange Process
Your Path to UP — At a Glance
The exchange process has two sequential phases. Your home university goes first,
then it's your turn to complete your personal application.
Phase 1
Nomination
Your home university coordinator nominates you through UP's official form.
Phase 2
Application
You receive an email invitation and submit your personal application documents.
Phase 3
Course Selection
Course list sent ~2 months before semester. You select and get home university approval.
Arrival &
Orientation
Attend orientation, meet your coordinator, and start your adventure at UP.
Nomination Process
Before you can apply, your home university's international coordinator must officially nominate you to Universidad Panamericana. This is the starting gate — nothing moves forward without it.
Nomination Deadlines
Important: The nomination must be submitted by your home university's international coordinator — not by the student. Once nominated, you'll receive an email with instructions to start your personal application.
After receiving all essential documentation, UP will share admission documents needed for visa application with your home university.
