However, due to the non-adherence of Switzerland to the EU, the relationship between your organisation and eduswiss StudEx cannot be the same as with your other partners. StudEx and the Partner will mutually provide all services required to organise student exchanges free of charge. StudEx is registering new applications almost daily and will regularly provide the Partner with updated lists of well qualified candidates. However, most Swiss companies accepting foreign students for a placement will pay them a salary that more than covers their living cost in Switzerland.
Some companies even pay travel and language course expenses.
Hence, students will not suffer from the fact that they receive no grant. For those cases where the students do not receive a sufficient salary, eduswiss StudEx will be able to provide some financial assistance. Such assistance will be given on a case by case basis after carefully considering the particular circumstances . StudEx will look for a reasonable number of placement opportunities to offer to its Partners. StudEx and the Partner aim at balancing the students exchanged, although this will not always be possible for every individual Partner.
