Illustrative content
01Mobility
A full term at a partner university, with all credits recognised. Twelve places a year, awarded on academic record.
Four to eight weeks at a partner centre, attached to a live research project.
Intensive three- to five-week courses at partner universities, credited as an elective.
02International students
Five steps. The visa itself is up to the authorities and not to the institution, and the process says so before anybody has to ask.
The Academic Registry reviews the file and issues the credit-transfer decision within ten working days.
The same form as a regular application, with documents apostilled or legalised.
Issued once the file is complete, and used as supporting evidence for the visa application.
The International Office helps with the application to the relevant authorities. The decision is not the institution's to make.
Help finding somewhere to live, an assigned tutor, and support through the first term.
