Meet outgoing exchange students from the Faculty of Arts going to your home university or home country in spring 2026

Now you have the chance of learning more about studying in Aarhus while at the same time being a good ambassador for your home university and helping our next generation of outgoing students.

At the Exchange Meet and Greet you will be matched with outgoing students going to your home university or home country in spring 2026 and those who were already on exchange this spring.

The purpose of the event is for you to have an informal chat about all aspects of life as an exchange student. You get the chance to meet Danish students who can introduce you to life as a student in Aarhus and answer all the questions you might have. At the same time, you can help the outgoing students learn more about their destination by sharing your knowledge and experiences about your home university and country. You do not need to prepare anything. Faculty of Arts will facilitate the event and provide you with some questions for inspiration.

Please note that we cannot guarantee a match based on country or university, as it depends on who else registers for the event. However, you will still have the opportunity to meet other Danish students.

Please use the following link to sign up for the event (it will take less than 2 minutes). The registration deadline is on August 24https://survey.au.dk/LinkCollector?key=7KXV2CM3L1C1.
