How to read the destinations brochure

The Destinations Brochure is available in yoU@B > International Programs > Exchange Destinations and is divided into three tabs. Each tab provides specific information to help you choose your exchange destination

General Information
This section includes essential information on safety, health and travel conditions, academic and financial responsibilities, and eligibility rules. You are required to read this section carefully before submitting your application.

Partner Universities
For each Partner University, you will find all the relevant information for your application, and in particular:

  • University code which unambiguously identifies the university, school and department. For European destinations 2 codes are indicated, the first is the Erasmus code and the second is the University code, please note that the Erasmus code is not related to the city of your exchange destination;
  • Number of available slots and any specifications (e.g. possible notes on any slots out of the total reserved to specific degree programs). Slots will be defined on an annual basis and may change based on existing bilateral agreements with partner universities;
  • Exchange period(s) available (terms). If two or more terms are indicated as available, if selected, students will make a choice during the acceptance stage; if only one period is indicated as available, selected students will be automatically assigned to that term. In case of universities with a limited number of slots for each semester, there will be specified slots for each term;
  • Minimum language required for the selection and possible additional language requirements or additional academic requirements that the student must consider when applying. 
    To review the destination-specific requirements click on "Info".
  • Study programs the university is recommended for/reserved for/not available for, based on the educational offer available. Students cannot indicate universities reserved for study programs other than their own or not available for their own program, at the time of application. Students may indicate universities recommended for study programs other than their own at the time of application, subject to careful evaluation of the offer of courses at that destination and compatibility with needs of the program structure.

Rules for entry the Countries may differ according to students’ citizenship. It is up to the student to verify the suitable procedures for obtaining the appropriate visa, if required, and any other documents necessary for the Exchange Program to be carried out in full compliance with local laws.
