ACUCA STUDENT MOBILITY SCHEME
Reply Proforma
Established in 2002, the ACUCA Student Mobility Scheme aims to foster a better understanding of Asian
communities and cultures among ACUCA students. Under the Scheme, member institutions that have courses
taught in English in either regular semester or summer sessions will exchange tuition waivers to enable students
to study tuition-free at an institution outside of their own country for a semester or during the summer. ACUCA
assistance will come in the form of an airfare subsidy.
