Repeated Exchange within the same level of study

With regard to the unusual situation of the Spring 2020 exchanges, which were influenced by the COVID-19, VSE decided that the students selected to the Spring 2020 exchange will be exceptionally allowed to apply for another exchange within the same level of study.

  • The following students will be allowed to apply:
    • Students selected to the Spring 2020 exchange (no matter if their exchange terminated in connection with COVID-19 or not),
      • Students who completed their exchange semester in Spring 2020 (online or in person) need to seek the approval of their Academic Director before applying for another exchange within the same level of study.
    • Students selected to the Fall 2020 exchange, whose exchange semester was cancelled (or moved online) by the partner university and to whom the deferral of the exchange to the Spring semester 2021 was not offered.
      • Students need to seek the approval of their Academic Director first.
