Here you will find the application dates.
- Subjects that have been failed at least once at UVa cannot be included in the Learning Agreement.
- The maximum number of ECTS for UVa subjects is 60 for an academic year and 30 for a semester.
- In general, the credits taken at destination and those that will be recognized at the UVa cannot differ more than 5 credits
- Except for duly justified exceptional cases, the BA thesis cannot be an exchange subject (and, in any case, it will be presented and defended at the UVa)
- The external internship subject can only be validated by another equivalent internship subject at the host university; It is important to make sure of this possibility before formalizing the Learning Agreement, asking the academic manager at UVa.
- Language courses may not be recognized, in general, by curricular subjects here (this does not apply to specialized level subjects in English and Modern Languages)
The host University will contact you and provide you with a link to register as an Erasmus + or International student. In this link, information is provided on the accommodation offered by each university and the possibility of booking a room in a university residence. In that application you must also upload your Learning Agreement. If they do not ask you, you will have to deliver a copy as soon as you arrive at your destination so that they can enroll you in the subjects you have chosen.
When you arrive at your choice of university, you must contact your RIB there, so that they can sign the learning agreement, and go to the International Relations Service, which will sign Letter 1. It is essential that you send this signed document as soon as possible to mariasoledad.alvarez@uva.es (from the outgoing RRII Service) so that the payment of your scholarship can be processed.
You probably don’t need any help with this ; )
- You must send LETTER 2 signed by the destination RRII Service by mail to relint@uva.es.
- The EU will send you an email for you to complete the final OLS test.
- The EU will send you an email so that you can complete the final report.
- Your transcript of records (your marks) are sent by the host university to your RIB at the UVA or to RRII. As it sometimes takes time to arrive, it is important that you obtain a copy by mail and that you send it as soon as possible to your RIB, who is responsible for validating your grades and recognizing your credits. The validation is carried out through a model conversion table that you can consult on our website (here)
