Call and how to apply it

To apply for a place in the single call for the Erasmus+ program and the UAB Exchange Programme, you must complete the electronic application that you will find at: http://sia.uab.cat/, section Students, Application and consultation OUT exchange (Outgoing Students).

Here you can find an explanatory video on how to apply and add documents.

Students will be able to choose between a maximum of 8 possible destinations and a minimum of 1 from the two programs. The duration options will be: annual, semester or semester if the annual stays have been sold out.

The electronic application will be available during the period in which the call is open.

The documentation justifying the accreditation of the language level must be enclosed in the electronic application within the deadline for the opening of the call.

Each student may submit only one electronic application for this call. Within the application, you can apply for places in both programs without distinction.

Only in the event that a student wants to do two stays, an Erasmus+ semester stay and a UAB Exchange Program semester stay during the same academic year, they will need to make two requests: one request corresponding to the mobility of the first semester in the one that can only choose destinations from a single program (Erasmus+ or UAB Exchange Programme) and a second application corresponding to the second semester in which only destinations from the other program can be chosen. It will only be possible to obtain two places in two different programs if the stays are semester-long and are carried out consecutively during the same academic year, that is, if there are no overlaps in the periods of stay.

For students who have submitted an application and have not obtained a place in the first resolution, or students who have obtained a place and have renounced it, a second application period is planned, in which they can opt to the places that have become vacant.
Acceptance or resignation of the position

The Vice-Rector's Office for International Relations will make public the decision on the allocation of places and the waiting list. The final award will always depend on acceptance by the destination university.

Students to whom a place has been allocated must make a formal acceptance or resignation, within the terms and form required in the call. If the student does not accept or does not expressly resign, it will automatically be understood as a resignation, without the possibility of being able to opt for any other destination.

Those students who resign from their position after the established date must explain the reasons for their resignation in writing to the person responsible for exchanges at their school. The center coordinator will assess whether the resignation is considered justified or not. Unjustified withdrawals, as well as non-compliance with the requirements by the student at any time during the process, will be penalized so that any exchange requests that may be made in the future will be relegated to the last place from the list of applicants.

The award of a place does not necessarily imply the award of a scholarship.

Additional assessment for knowledge of foreign languages

Language level will count up to a maximum of 2 points during the selection process when grading submitted applications. Students who wish to obtain an additional assessment for language knowledge will need to present supporting certifications qualified in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).

If they do not have certifications or if the certifications are not qualified according to the MECR, students can take an exam at the UAB Language Service, which issues a certificate attesting to language skills in English, French, German or Italian. The schedule for taking the tests is published on the website of the Language Service and on the UAB website, in the English exams section.

This documentation must be attached to the application within the deadline for opening the call (except in the case of students taking exams organized by the Language Service, the results of which will be sent directly to the International Relations Area and the centers). Students of degrees taught at the UAB in the vehicular language in which mobility will take place (see the list approved by the Academic Affairs Committee on 26.11.2015) who have passed 50% of the course credits, they will get the extra 2 points.

In the event that the university requires it, the selected person must present the supporting documentation of the required language level. This documentation must be delivered after the selection in the established terms and form.
