An exposure is a two-year learning pathway involving a reciprocal exchange between students from UAntwerpen and from one of USOS' partner universities. Students stay with host families. They follow a socio-cultural programme and immerse themselves in a social theme.

Since its inception in 1985, USOS has organised a total of 79 exposure trips.

For academic year 2024-2025, students can apply for the exchange in Tanzania (Dutch language proficiency required).
