Student mobility for study - Incoming
To study abroad within Erasmus+, you must be registered in a higher education institution and enrolled in studies leading to a recognised degree or tertiary-level qualification.
Your period of study abroad must be relevant for your study programme that you are following.
The responsible person at your university (usually the Erasmus+ coordinator or representative of the International office) must send your nomination to UNG. The nomination must be submitted by the specified deadline for nominations set by UNG. The nomination must be sent to international.office@ung.si.
Deadlines for nominations:
- Winter semester: 1st of June
- Summer semester: 15th of October
Deadlines for applications:
- Winter semester: 15th of June
- Summer semester: 31th of October
Following your nomination for mobility at the UNG, you will be required to complete an Application Form. Along with the completed and signed application form, you will be required to submit a motivation letter, CV, a copy of your identification document, transcript of records, and portfolio (in case of applying to the Academy of Arts). You may also be additionally invited for an interview.
Proficiency in the English language at a B1 level is mandatory for admission to the University of Nova Gorica (UNG).
The UNG organizes Slovene language course for foreigners during the academic year. In case that during your mobility we will not be able to organize Slovene language course for foreigners, we will propose you other institutions that organize Slovene language course for foreigners or you can use Slovene Learning Online.
The International Office will make every reasonable effort to assist inbound students in arranging suitable accommodation if you indicate this in the application form. Otherwise you need to find the appropriate accommodation by yourself.
The UNG will not provide insurance for incoming students. Therefore you will have to prove that you have health insurance valid in Slovenia/EU for the whole mobility period. The evidence of your health insurance policy must be sent via email to international.office@ung.si, at least 2 weeks before your arrival or we may reject your mobility.
