Nomination process

Partner institutions to Aarhus University can use the existing bilateral exchange agreement between Aarhus University and your institution to nominate students for exchange (tuition-fee-waived) at AU Summer University. 

The nominated students will be treated as regular semester exchange students and therefore counting in the general exchange balance between Aarhus University and your institution. 

Aarhus University counts 3:1 towards the regular semester. This also means that when choosing to nominate students to Summer University this will influence the number you can send for regular semester exchange at Aarhus University during the following academic year.

If you do not wish to spend exchange balance on AU Summer University, your students cannot apply as exchange students (tuition-fee waived), but instead they must apply as free-movers (fee-paying students). 

It is no longer possible to nominate students for exchange at AU Summer University 2024, but in 2025 we expect to be offering more than 50 Summer courses at BA and MA level and as 5 or 10 ECTS credit courses, within a range of academic areas. Below you can see some of the 2025 key dates.
