Prerequisites

Any candidate for a mobility-study must have been registered at Aix-Marseille University the previous year.
Before preparing an application, all candidates must check with their academic training manager that they agree that this training can be followed abroad as part of the programme, for validation of their return to France.

  • hold a Licence 1, 2 or 3 at the time of departure
  • have succeeded in the first half of the current year
  • average of 12/20 (GPA 3.0)

Follow-up & academic recognition

You benefit from a secure itinerary through administrative and pedagogical follow-up of the two universities, before your departure, during your stay and on your return.

In most cases, you benefit from the recognition of the credits obtained in the host university and validate the diploma in which you are registered at Aix-Marseille University.

Cost & Financing

You remain enrolled at Aix-Marseille University where you pay your registration fees. The host university therefore undertakes to waive your tuition fees, which is a significant advantage in some universities, particularly in North America or the United Kingdom!
