Before application

You do not have to make an appointment. Just come by the walk-in office hours on Tuesdays or Thursdays from 14:00 to 16:00.

Attention: in February there will be extra Office Hours als on Wednesdays!

In some cases, it is possible to go on exchange to a university outside of our partner list as a so called free-mover. Our Board of Examiners would still have to agree on your choice of the university.

However, please note that in this case, you would have to organise the whole exchange yourself, without any help of the Exchange Office. You would have to contact the university in question and enquire if they would accept you and, if yes, under which conditions and after meeting which requirements. You would also not receive a grant from our university.

This means that you would not take part in our application process.

In some cases, the students coming back from exchange allows us to share their contact details with future prospective students. Please contact the Exchange Office and check if any of the previous students are available.

If you have passed all the courses from your main track until now (75 ECTS), you may still apply for an exchange outside of Europe. You would then be selected provisionally, under the condition that you passed your block 2 exams. If you still have a resit in block 2, you may not apply for an exchange outside of Europe. 

If you have between 75 and 90 ECTS at the moment of application and/or are missing a 1^st year course, you are still allowed to apply for exchange inside of Europe on a Bachelor level, if you upload a Long Term Study Plan signed by your LLB study advisers together with your application.

If selected, your nomination will be provisional until you have obtained the required minimum of 90 ECTS and/or passed the missing 1^st year course(s).

Yes. The rules, procedures and deadlines are exactly the same as for the Bachelor students. The only difference is the level of courses you are allowed to follow during your exchange. As only the Master-level course you followed will be transferred to your LLM diploma, the majority of courses should be on a Master level. Please check the IESE website so see what the available level of courses is at the universities of your choice. I would like to bring your attention especially to our partners in USA and Canada, who mostly only accept the Master students. 

In addition, you will have to prolong your studies, as the semester abroad is an extra-curricular addition to your studies and you cannot replace the core subjects of your programme with similar courses abroad.

Unfortunately, this means that you cannot apply in the first selection round. However, you could submit a late application up until 30 April (if you have the required minimum of 75 ECTS then). Nevertheless, it would only be possible for the partner universities that still have spots available after the first selection round and still are open to receive nominations. You may contact me again after your resits to check which universities are still available.

The reason why your application is incomplete is mentioned in the email you received. Upload the missing documents and/or correct your current application in MO. Then click on “Enter confirmation” to resubmit your application for reevaluation.

DO NOT create a new application!

The Selection Committee strives to place as many students as possible at the university of their first choice. However, this is not always possible due to the high number of candidates applying for a limited spots available. This decision is made by the Committee based on the total amount of applications for the three universities of your choice, your GPA, CV and the motivation letter. The level of your studies, the study progress, extra-curricular activities and your cultural sensitivity play also an important role in this process.
