Faculty agreements

Presentation

If you want to study at a university available under an SEMP or faculty agreement, you need to apply to your faculty by 20 February at the latest (note: the deadline for applications in the School of Medicine is a few days earlier – please check the School of Medicine website). If you are not accepted, you can apply again by 15 April to study under a general agreement, but only for the spring term of the following year, provided there are still places available at one of the destinations you are interested in.

For the date of the session, check your faculty’s website at the beginning of the academic year, check the e-mails on your UNIL account regularly, and if necessary, contact your mobility adviser.
Check how much time your faculty allows you to spend away on an exchange.
Identify the destination(s) you are interested in for your exchange via the database of agreements proposed by UNIL.
Study the course programmes at the universities you are considering carefully and check that they are compatible with the course you are taking at UNIL.
Make an appointment with your mobility adviser to make sure that the courses you are planning to take abroad will be recognised when you return.
Make sure you start the process of taking the language proficiency tests (e.g. IELTS, TOEFL, etc.) required by some non French-speaking destinations early enough.
Complete and sign the forms in margin.
Submit your full application by the deadline given in the instructions shown on the application form.
Note: you must submit your application in English if you are applying for a non French-speaking destination.
