You must choose one or two institutions to which you wish to apply and the institution must be the partner of your faculty, i.e.: It must have signed an inter-institutional Erasmus agreement and submit an online registration form. The database of Erasmus partner universities is available here. Students currently studying at one of Vilnius University`s international partner institutions can apply for one or two semesters as bilateral exchange students. If you pass or add a course, be sure to complete the agreement on changes to the learning agreement and send you to the IRO with the registration form for the VU courses. It is signed and sent automatically to your home university for approval. In addition to the Erasmus inter-institutional agreements signed by the faculties, it can choose between the partners of the ARQUS network or the Coimbra group with which students exchange their activities through open mobility agreements. For more information, click here. Below is a list of partner universities with which we have active student exchange contracts (the number in brackets indicates the number of student exchange semesters we have for the academic year 2020/2021) The levels indicated (Bachelor, Master, PhD) are conditional, z.B. If you are a bachelor`s student, you can apply for master`s and doctoral positions. If no suitable candidate is a candidate at the stated level of education and the partner university is willing to accept you, you will have a fair chance of changing universities. We update the list of partner institutions for each round of applications (September; February). Exchange students are those who arrive at Vilnius University as part of the exchange program or bilateral agreements.

They are treated in accordance with the terms of the program or agreement and are generally exempt from tuition fees at vilnius University. Faculty coordinators may suggest that you choose another partner university, as the competition exists in the educational institution you have chosen or because of the more rigorous adherence to your curriculum. The results of the selection are published in the News section no later than 2 weeks after the end of the online registration. The University of Vilnius has more than 190 bilateral agreements, but only 70 agreements provide for student exchanges. Most bilateral agreements with European higher education institutions are devoted to administrative cooperation and staff exchanges. If you are a foreign student in the EU, you need a valid D visa or a temporary residence permit to study in Lithuania, and these documents allow students to travel 3 months over a period of 6 months in Schengen countries, but not grant the right to study. After receiving an acceptance letter (this may be an electronic version), you must ask your host university coordinator for the visa procedure in your destination country.
