Study in a foreign university

• Be enrolled at Aix Marseille University, in the Faculty of Economics and Management (an exception is made for students accepted to the Licence 3 IPBE from an external institution),
• Have validated 120 credits or have a minimum of L2 level at the time of application
• To be mobile to a partner institution
• Have obtained the signature of each study project by your academic supervisor,
• Have validated the first semester of your application year,
• Validate your application year,
• The dates of your mobility must correspond to your curriculum. Check the dates of the academic calendars for EACH university you are applying to. This is why we ask you to indicate your mobility dates on your study plans. If they are not compatible with your training or your competition plans, for example, you should not choose this university. No exceptions will be made if you have to return to S2.
• Be able to prove the language level required by the partner (Toeic, Toefl, Ielts type language certification). It is strongly advised to take an official language certificate. Most of the time, you will be asked for it when you register at the host university. The host university has the right to refuse you if you do not officially prove your language level. TOEIC sessions can be organized at the FEG. You can get information from the school of Licences or of your Master.

You must have your official proof of language level for the registration at the host university, about 4 months before the beginning of the courses

• Submit a complete application file on the mobility platform (link in the "When to apply" tab) during the application periods indicated for each destination.

You must know for which training you want to go.

In order to prepare for your mobility, you must know the program of the program for which you will be leaving (see the list of courses on the FEG website).

The courses chosen in the host university must correspond (in competence rather than in title) with those you would have chosen if you were doing your year at the FEG in France.

The study projects allow you to match the competences during your mobility period.

Only the pedagogical managers of the program you want to study at are competent to establish the equivalence of the courses between those of the FEG and those of your host university. They will sign your study plan when you apply for the mobility program and your learning agreement which will formalize your choice of courses and your registration in them with the host university.

To anticipate your expenses, please read our information sheets in order to better plan your administrative procedures, your budget, your insurance, your accommodation, etc.

Among our partner institutions we distinguish two types of agreements:

• Multidisciplinary AMU agreements: 1st wave of applications closing around December 15 of each year.

They are managed and negotiated at the Aix Marseille University level and the negotiated places are therefore open to several or all AMU components. When you apply for a multidisciplinary agreement, you are competing with all the students of AMU.

The CIVIS universities are part of the AMU agreements.

• Agreements with the FEG: 2nd wave of applications closing around mid-March.

They are managed and negotiated by the component (the Faculty of Economics and Management) and the negotiated places are reserved for the FEG. When you apply on a disciplinary agreement you are therefore in competition only with students from the FEG.

The ERASMUS agreements are considered as FEG agreements.

• Passport valid for 6 months after the return is mandatory for destinations outside Europe (please have it redone as soon as you apply) or CI for the others (note that the UK is not in Europe anymore);
• Study plans signed by your academic supervisor (see documents to be filled in below). There will be one page per partner university, ALL signed and classified by order of preference. Without the signature of the person in charge of studies, your application for mobility is not valid,
• CV (in French) even for repeated years,
• Motivation letter (not one per destination but a global letter explaining your mobility project in French)
• Transcripts: BAC + all the years until your application, even if you have repeated a year
• Official language certificate (Toeic/Toefl/IELTS) for countries outside of Europe, for other countries, a certificate from your language teacher may suffice (unless otherwise indicated on the partner university's website).

The requirements of the universities are in the country files in the "Where?" tab.

ATTENTION, universities are more and more demanding for language levels because the lack of level durably engages the success of your mobility if you do not understand the courses.

Your university average = Baccalaureate average + equivalent year Baccalaureate average + Baccalaureate average ..../ number of years considered

ATTENTION:

• THE PAYMENT OF THE SCHOLARSHIPS IS MADE VERY LATE IN RELATION TO YOUR ARRIVAL ON SITE. THE LATER THE DOCUMENTS ARE UPLOADED ON THE MOVEON MOBILITY PLATFORM, THE MORE YOU DELAY YOUR PAYMENT.

• THE PROCEDURE IS DIFFERENT FOR THE 21/22 MOBILITIES THAN FOR 22/23

PMS Scholarship

The file of all the students who have validated their scholarship application(2022/23 - Post-nomination stage + 2022/23 - Mobility file constitution form / Closing 20 July 2022 ) on the mobility platform are automatically submitted to the PMS scholarship. However, there are very few elected candidates because it depends on the PMS budget allocated each year by AMU. The target countries are not known before the allocation of PMS grants.

All these documents are to be uploaded to the Moveon mobility platform at stage 3 of their stay:
