What do I need to apply for an exchange position?

Depending on the destination university, you apply to different coordinators at FAU, either at program, department, faculty or university level. The respective application requirements may vary from case to case. Therefore, please check the websites of the relevant office to find out exactly which application requirements you have to fulfill and how the application process works.

With regard to language certificates, the following generally applies: high school diplomas or documents stating that your university degree was taught in English cannot be accepted as language certificates for the application for an exchange place. If necessary, please have your language level determined in good time at the FAU Language Center by taking the very inexpensive mobility test if you do not have another official certificate (TOEFL, IELTS, DELE, etc.). However, the Language Center urges you not to take the mobility test shortly before the application deadlines (usually in January).
