If it's on Korean air, or any of the better, Asian, service oriented airlines, AND it was bought at full price directly from them (not likely) it might be possible. But the full price fares for these airline are no joke. Might be cheaper just to scrap the ticket you have and buy a different one. Or preferably, go back in time and negotiate a different ticket or cash in lieu of the ticket home. |

In my experience, you can't just "swap tickets" but you can change the dates. For a fee of course. |

Maybe you can sell it online or scalp it at the airport. |

Not since 9/11. International airline tickets are non transferable. The name on the ticket has to match the name in the passport.

Indeed.
Also, unless the school was willing to pay more for a refundable ticket then odds are the ticket is non-refundable or just partially refundable. |
