This info session is for all students applying to study abroad in Winter 23/24 or Summer 25 via the Erasmus+ or faculty agreements programm. You will receive all information about the application process at KU:
Own faculty programs have the following formal requirements:
The selection and distribution of study places is carried out by the International Office. The following criteria will be taken into account:
You need a proof of English language skills on level at least B2.
Attention: Some universities also require proof of TOEFL or English proficiency at C1 level.
Bachelor students can obtain proof of language proficiency for level B2 based on their Abitur. This is possible for the languages English, French, Spanish and Italian, if all conditions are fulfilled and confirmed by the Abitur certificate:
If all these conditions are met, the Abitur certificate counts as proof of a language certificate for B2. However, it is important to note that the information on the Abitur certificate, especially if it indicates a language level of B2+/C1, is only indicative. These do not necessarily reflect the academic language level required for a C1 certificate.
Students who wish to prove their knowledge at C1 level must therefore take an official language test. Recommended tests for this are the TOEFL iBT or the Academic IELTS. These tests are internationally recognized and provide a precise and reliable assessment of your language skills at an academic level.
The application deadline in winter semester 24/25 for a study visit in winter semester 25/26 or summer semester 26:
December 9, 2024 to January 15, 2025.
The application runs online via our application portal Mobility-Online. For more information, please click on the tab "Online application portal".
