• include evidence of having passed one of the approved tests on our approved list of English language qualifications at CEFR Level B2 or above (English Language Requirements)
• include evidence that your home university teaches your subject of study in English.

Students from outside of the EU/EEA and whose native language is not English must provide evidence of having passed one of the approved tests on our approved list of English language qualifications. (English Language Requirements)

Your application will be considered by the appropriate Departmental Exchange Coordinator(s). Teaching at ÐÔÊӽ紫ý builds knowledge on a subject each academic year. We will assess your application based on the modules you have studied to date (i.e. look at your depth of knowledge in the subject area) and your personal statement. Once your application has been assessed, a decision will be made and emailed to you along with module descriptors for courses that will be available to you.

Students coming to ÐÔÊӽ紫ý via one of our named Exchange partnerships will not be required to pay any tuition fees. As an exchange student you will be responsible for your general living expenses such as books and accommodation.
