Partner Universities: Outside Europe (Bilateral Programs)

Since you are studying at one of our partner universities and you are interested in studying one semester or one academic year at the European University Viadrina, you can apply as an exchange student. Exchange students can receive certificates of examinations passed, but no degree from the Viadrina (besides students within our double or multiple degree programs).

Please contact your home university first. Your home university nominates you for a student exchange to the Viadrina. When we have received the information on your nomination, we will send you a link to a web site where you can fill in the application for your Erasmus stay online. On this web site you will find additional information for the online application process.

Next steps:

1. Fill in and send the application form online.
2. Print out the form that was generated as a PDF file by Step 1 and sign it.
3. Get this printed form signed and stamped by your home university.
4. Send you application with a photo to the following address:

European University Viadrina
