FAQs

  • Apart from native speakers (receiving country's language is native languages), every Outgoing has to do the OLS language test.
  • Some universities do not accept the OLS test. I can sign relevant documents to confirm your participation.
  • If you have urgent request during your stay, please email. Please phrase clearly and send contact details if needed.
  • Important information about your host institute can be found on the contracts.
  • Anrechnung eines Kurses für zwei Veranstaltungen in Freiburg: Z.B. Kurs im Ausland für 10 ECTS, kann man 5 ECTS für das fachfremde Modul und 5 für BOK-Kurse anrechnen lassen? Nein, die Aufteilung der ECTS Punkte ist nicht möglich. 
  • Fachfremder Austausch bzw Anfragen ausserhalb der Partnervertraege:
    Laut IO "Fachfremde Freiburger Studierende können sich bei den Freiburger Fachverantwortlichen um Restplätze bemühen. Allerdings ist das Verfahren aufwändig, denn diese Plätze werden immer nachrangig vergeben; die Partnerhochschulen müssen nicht nur einer fachfremden Bewerbung zustimmen, sondern auch den Aufenthalt fachlich betreuen. Zudem sind die Freiburger Verantwortlichen der eigentlichen Studienfächer in den fachfremden ERASMUS+-Aufenthalt einzubinden durch fachliche Beratung, Erstellung der Studienverträge und Anerkennung der im Ausland erbrachten Studienleistungen."
