U N I V E R S I T I E SIn order to be eligible for the Global exchange programme, you must be enrolled as a Bachelor or Master student at the University of Luxembourg and must be in good standing with a minimum grade average of 12.

Some host universities also have additional requirements, such as minimum average grades.
Mobility fund
As a Bachelor student, you will obtain a substantial financial aid through the University of Luxembourg’s mobility fund.
Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility
If you apply for an exchange place at one of our partner universities in the United States and are a citizen of the European Union, you are automatically considered for this scholarship.

Bachelor and Master students selected for the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya in Israel and In-nopolis University in Russia will benefit from a grant by the European Commission within the framework of the Erasmus+ International Cre-dit Mobility, within the limits of available places and funds. This grant consists in a monthly allowance of 700€ as well as travel allowance of 530€ for Israel and 360€ for Russia.
U.S. Embassy - U.S. Enterprise scholarship
In addition, Bachelor students who have been accepted for an ex-change semester at a partner university in the United States can also benefit from the U.S. Embassy – U.S. Enterprise Scholarship in the amount of 4000€. This scholarship is offered by the Embassy of the United States in Luxembourg together with American companies present in Luxembourg.
You will find an overview of all partner universities that are part of the Global exchange programme on the following pages.
However, not all of them accept students in all fields and for all study levels. Therefore, read the following section care-fully before selecting a host university.
Partner universities and available places may be subject to change. For the most up-to-date information visit: > https://unilux.moveon4.de/publisher/4/fra.

Information meetings will take place during the Study Abroad Day on 6 November 2019. After the meetings, the link to the application form will be sent to you by the Mobility office. In order to apply, please submit your online application by 18 No-vember 2019, 12PM, including the following documents:
• copy of student card• copy of passport• transcript of records• motivation letter in the language of instruction of the university of your
first choice*• curriculum vitae
In the application form, you can indicate up to three host universities in order of preference.
* The motivation letter must be addressed to the selection committee of the University of Luxembourg and not to the host university.
A pre-selection will be made on the basis of the application documents you have submitted. If you pass this first step, you will be invited to a personal interview which will take place between 9 and 13 December 2019. If the selection committee decides to give you the opportunity to study abroad within the Global exchange programme, you will be allocated a place at one of the universities you indicated in your application form. Generally, the selection committee tries to give priority to your first choice, but you might also be selected for a uni-versity you indicated as second or third choice.
The second step is the application at the host university. The Mobility office will contact you in due time to inform you about the application procedure and deadlines depending on
the host university. You should be aware that although you have been selected by the University of Luxembourg for a place wit-hin the Global exchange programme the approval to leave can be withdrawn as per the course director’s decision if you do not successfully finish the semester prior to your departure. The fi-nal decision regarding your admission always lies with the host university.
If you apply in November 2019, your mobility period will take place during the winter semester 2020-2021. The duration is always of one semester.

> Can I apply if I am currently in my first semester of a Bachelor pro-gramme at the University of Luxembourg?
No, you cannot apply if you are in your first semester, as the Global ex-change programme is a merit-based programme and as it is not possible to assess your academic standing before you have obtained any results at the University of Luxembourg. It is only possible to apply to the Global exchange programme in your third semester to go abroad in the fifth semester of your studies.
For students of the Bachelor of Science in Psychology, Bachelor en Sciences Sociales et Educatives, Bachelor en Sciences de l’Education, Bachelor in Computer Science and Bachelor in Applied Information Tech-nology it is only possible to apply in the second semester for a study abroad period in their fourth semester. However, the places available in the summer semester are more limited.
> Can I apply at the same time for a place within the Global exchange programme and within the Erasmus+ programme?
If you have been selected for a place within the Global exchange pro-gramme, you cannot apply for a place within the Erasmus+ programme in the same semester. However, it is possible to do an Erasmus ex-change before going on mobility within the Global exchange programme. You can for instance do an Erasmus exchange in your third and fourth semester and an exchange within the Global exchange programme in your fifth semester.
In case your application within the Global exchange programme was rejected by the host university, the University of Luxembourg would of-course do its best to offer you an alternative. Please note also that if you cancel or refuse a Global Exchange spot that has been allocated to you, you will neither be eligible for the Erasmus Programme nor for any funding managed by the University of Luxembourg (Erasmus grant and mobility fund) for the relevant academic year.
> Can I get a grant from the mobility fund if I am a Master student?
No, the mobility fund is reserved for Bachelor students only. This fund has been created to help Bachelor students finance their mandatory mobility term and the enrolment fees for first-year Bachelor students have been raised in order to supply the mobility fund. These funds can therefore not be transferred to another study level.
> What should my motivation letter contain?
In your motivation letter, you should explain why you would like to study abroad within the Global exchange programme and why you would be a good ambassador for the University of Luxembourg. You should also motivate the choice of your host institution(s).
> How can I find out whether the host university I am interested in offers the right courses for me?
The main source of information is the website of the host university. Please check it carefully to find out which courses are on offer for ex-change students during the semester of your choice and which language they are taught in. Once you have this information, you should make an appointment with the Student mobility specialist at your faculty (Ste-phanie Anderson for FDEF, Ms. Nathalie Charpentier for FLSHASE or Ma-rielle Mabille for FSTC) to discuss your choice of courses.
> Can I choose less than three host universities when applying?
If you would only like to study at one specific university and are not inte-rested in the other options, you are free to choose only this institution. You should be aware however that indicating several choices increases your chances of being selected. If you have only chosen one host uni-versity and have not been allocated a place there, no other options will be offered to you.
> What is International Credit Mobility? International Credit Mobility is a new part of the Erasmus+ programme
that allows for student exchanges with partner universities outside the European Union. The programme is funded by the European Commission and selected students obtain a financial contribution, which consists in a travel grant as well as a monthly subsistence allowance. For the academic year 2020-2021, the University of Luxembourg only has few grants to offer to outgoing students and they are reserved for Bachelor and Master students selected to attend the Hebrew University of Jeru-salem and the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya in Israel and Innopolis University in Russia.
