Once you are selected by the Erasmus Academic Coordinator of your Department, the International Office nominates you to the partner Universities and an acceptance letter is issued once the host Universities confirm the nominations.
Each student is informed about the requirments of the Host University by its website or the academic coordinator. The student must remain aware of this procedure, as well as of the entry and exit procedures from the host country. Then the student continues with the completing and sending of the necessary supporting documents to the Host University. Each student is responsible to remain informed and to meet the deadlines set by the Host University, as well as to ensure the correct completion and submission of the necessary supporting documents to the Host University, so special attention must be paid to instructions given by each Host University. The process of completing the procedure regarding their enrollment at the host University and their stay abroad is exclusively the responsibility of the student. The International Relations Office of the University of Thessaly helps to supplement and sign the forms needed.
