OUTGOING Student Mobility
Application process for 2025/26
Remaining places for the SS 2026
Application period: will be announced in May
A stay abroad during your studies is the best way to get to know new things and should, among other things, promote and strengthen intercultural experiences. You will benefit from this experience for the rest of your life.
In each study cycle, students have the opportunity to spend up to 12 months abroad as part of the exchange programmes we offer and depending on budgetary availability.
Interested? Here you can find student experience reports
Are you a student at our university and interested in studying abroad? We regularly organise information events to which we cordially invite you. We are also happy to provide you with individual counselling - please make an appointment.
GOOD TO KNOW:
For stays abroad during the lecture and examination period, an application for a waiver of tuition fees can be submitted for a minimum stay of 2 months.
Students on leave of absence cannot participate in the exchange programs.
A student exchange (study) can only take place at a︎ partner university of the University of Arts Linz via the available MOBILITY PROGRAMS. The Grant abroad enables students to prepare their final work abroad.
NEWS and NOTES:
The Rectorate is currently not sending any students to Israel until further notice.
United Kingdom:
In order to be fully compliant with UK Visa regulations it is necessary for students from third countries to provide evidence of their English language proficiency unless they are a national of a majority English speaking country. A wide range of qualifications are acceptable ranging from IELTS to DuoLingo.
