Outgoing students - Other departures
If you spend a semester abroad in the framework of an inter-university agreement or as a free mover you have to:
Before you leave
- Get information about the existing inter-university agreements between the University of Luxembourg and foreign universities from the SEVE Mobility, from the contact person for mobility within your faculty, at the SEVE documentation centre or on the web sites of possible host institutions ;
- Once you have chosen your host institution, draw up with your course director the learning agreement that stipulates the programme of courses to be taken there, so that the credits earned can be validated when you return.
Please note : In any case, the SEVE Mobility must be informed about your semester abroad. Study periods abroad which do not take place within any exchange programme can be recognized, if the director of studies has given his prior approval.
These steps should be taken sufficiently early, i.e. :
For the
winter semester:
starting in
March
For the
summer semester
: starting in
October
- Get information about the application procedure and hand in all required documents to the SEVE Mobility;
- Once your application has been accepted, you need to register with both institutions. At the University of Luxembourg, you will enrol as an outgoing student. A University of Luxembourg student card will be issued to you for the mobility semester;
- Go to the SEVE Mobility to sign your mobility contract, which stipulates where you are going and when you are leaving;
Please note: You generally have to pay the enrolment fees to your host institution.
It is strongly recommended to keep in touch with your course director and the SEVE Mobility during your stay at the host institution.
When you arrive at the host institution
- Have your certificate of arrival, attesting that you are on mobility leave, signed by your host institution and send it to the SEVE Mobility.
When you return
- Hand in the certificate of departure, duly signed by the host institution, to the SEVE Mobility. This certificate attests to the period of your stay;
- Fill in the Rapport de fin de séjour and submit it to the SEVE Mobility. This report is an evaluation of your stay abroad. The SEVE Mobility will email it to you at the end of your mobility period;
- Go to see your course director to have your mobility semester validated. The ECTS credits earned abroad are recognized on the basis of the previously signed learning agreement.
