(a) If a reciprocal exchange program requires a tuition payment, the tuition rate to be paid by participants will be either the relevant rate normally paid at Texas institutions or the rate normally charged nationals or residents of other nations by their institutions. Tuition rates paid by participants will be defined by the agreements entered into by the participating institutions. The method of charging and collecting tuition is to be negotiated between the two institutions involved in the exchange. The tuition rate and payment may be any of the following methods:      
        (1) pay the relevant tuition rate of receiving institution, paid to the receiving institution,       
        (2) pay the relevant tuition rate of the originating institution, paid to the receiving institution, or       
        (3) pay the relevant tuition rate of the originating institution, paid at the originating institution.       
      (b) A participant no longer participating in the exchange program, but continuing to enroll in the receiving institution will be expected to pay the rate charged other nonresident students beginning with the first enrollment period after the participant discontinues his/her participation in the exchange program.
