Once you have followed the instructions under Studying abroad and used the search engine to find one or two suitable partner universities, you can commence the application process,
which involves two stages.
First, you apply to the International Office for us to check whether you meet the criteria for studying abroad for a semester and to allocate you a place as you wish. After that, you can enrol or apply for a place at the partner university.
You can then simply follow the online instructions as you go along.
You will need to upload the following documents in the online applications portal:
Please upload all your documents as PDF files .
If you have found more than one potential partner university, you can indicate your first and second choices. Should you not secure a place at your preferred university, you will automatically be placed at your second choice. If you indicate a second choice, please also submit a personal statement and your planned subjects for that, too.
Incidentally, places are not allocated on a “first come, first served” basis. You have until the deadline for applications to complete your submission and upload all the required documents. Allocations are only decided after the deadline.
Application deadlines | |
15 Dec – 31 Jan | to go abroad for the winter semester |
1 July – 15 Aug | to go abroad for the summer semester |
Should you happen to miss a deadline, we re-open the applications portal to allocate any spare places from 1 to 15 March (for the winter semester) and from 1 to 15 October (for the summer semester).
What happens next?
At this point, you will need to formally apply to the partner university. You will either be sent the relevant information directly by the university in question, or you can find it on the info sheet (using the search engine).
Once you are accepted by the partner university, they will send you a letter of confirmation/enrolment.
And then?
If you encounter any technical issues, the International Office will be happy to help.
