Most students take part in exchanges during the 3rd year of their degree. Candidates for exchanges are usually expected to have at least an upper 2.1 honours average in years 1-2 and have experience of living independently.
Selection for exchange schemes usually takes place in early semester 2 of the year preceding departure (semester 2 of 2nd year). Information on how to apply is posted on this page when applications are open.”

Further information about Erasmus is available from the International Office Erasmus Outgoing Students pages.
If you wish to discuss opportunities for Erasmus, please contact the relevant coordinator listed via the International Office Erasmus Coordinators page during semester 2 of the year preceding when you wish to go away.
