Our exchange programs are open to all students regardless of their country of origin, but if you don’t have an EU citizenship you need to be aware of the following: You will need to apply for a study visa in the country of your host university and for the extension of your study visa in Germany if it expires during your stay abroad. If your German visa expires during your stay abroad you cannot re-enter the country. Please seek information about both visa processes in due time so that you know what you need to do and don’t miss any important deadlines. Applying for two study visas also means that you have to submit proof of your financial means in both countries. The Erasmus scholarship is only a partial scholarship and won’t be enough to confirm that you have the required financial resources. You definitely need own savings. Please inform yourself early on at the respective embassies which amount you have to prove. For stays in the United Kingdom, you will need a British health insurance (your German health insurance will not be accepted), which can be very costly.
