Student mobility for study – Outgoing
Studying abroad is a central part of Erasmus+ and has been shown to have a positive effect on later job prospects. It is also a chance to develop personally and professionally, gain self-confidence and independence, immerse yourself in a new culture and develop cultural awareness and open-mindedness, broaden your horizons, improve and gain language skills, increase motivation to learn, gain new transferable skills and beside all boost your employability.
To study abroad with Erasmus+, you must be registered and enrolled in studies at University of Nova Gorica (UNG). The receiving institution and the UNG must have an Inter-institutional Agreement. Your period of study abroad must be relevant for your study programme that you are following. To be eligible to go abroad with Erasmus+, you must apply for the UNG call and be selected.
Deadline for application for mobility in academic year 2024/2025 is 7.3.2024

Before mobility
- Prepare the Study Agreement: create the digital Online Learning Agreement (OLA) through the OLA portal https://www.learning-agreement.eu/.
- Take the language test: Online Language Support (OLS); the first language assessment determines your proficiency level in the foreign language (English or the language of the host country).
- Arrange Health Insurance: you need to arrange health insurance and provide the relevant proof to the Erasmus coordinator.
- Visa: for more information on the visa, visit the "Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia" website: http://www.mzz.gov.si/en/entry_and_residence/ and check whether a visa is required for the country you are traveling to. Obtaining a visa may take more than 3 months, so please ensure that you obtain the visa in a timely manner to proceed with the process.
- Grant Agreement: once you receive the signed study agreement, visa (if required), and have arranged health insurance, you can sign the Grant Agreement with UNG.
- Grant Agreement must be signed at least 1 week before departure abroad.
- Accommodation: find accommodation in the host country or ask the host institution for assistance (they may offer rooms in student dormitories, etc.).
- Transportation: purchase an airline ticket, bus ticket, or train ticket.
