Before the Departure

Before leaving, you must:

  • Check the deadlines and application procedures of the host university and ensure that you have completed all required steps;
  • Sign the Erasmus+ agreement at the International Mobility Office (Settore Flussi Europei e Internazionali) within the specified deadlines;
  • Register for language courses at the CLAT (Language Competence Development Centre), if assigned;
  • Complete, sign, and obtain the necessary signatures (yours, the academic coordinator’s, and the host institution’s) for the “Before the Mobility” section of your Learning Agreement. Submit the fully signed document to the Department's Erasmus Office in a single PDF file.

During the Erasmus+ Period

Upon arrival at the host University enrol formally at the institution.  Within five days, have the Certificate of Arrival completed by the host university and send it to the Settore Flussi Europei e Internazionali
If you wish to modify your course plan (e.g., adding, removing, or replacing courses), complete the “During the Mobility” section of the Learning Agreement:

  • Within the deadlines set by the host institution;
  • In any case, no later than 30 November for the first semester and 30 April for the second semester.

For further guidance on modifying your Learning Agreement and validating foreign exams, consult the Academic Information section. Only fully legible and complete scanned copies (in a single PDF) of modified Learning Agreements will be accepted. Photos or incomplete/illegible scans will not be considered valid.

Before your Coming Back

Before leaving the host university, ensure you receive:

  • A Certificate of Attendance indicating your arrival and departure dates, signed by Erasmus+ coordinators at the host institution. This should be either:
  • A Transcript of Records (ToR) listing all exams passed and corresponding grades. If the ToR is not ready before departure, arrange for it to be sent to you in PDF format via email or by other means.

N.B. All grades obtained abroad for courses listed in the Learning Agreement will be recognised by UniGe. Should you wish to refuse a grade, and if permitted by the host university, this must be done before the mark appears in the ToR. Once the exam has been accepted and included in the ToR, the conversion and registration of the grade in Italy become binding.

Upon Returning

Recognition of Academic Activity Completed Abroad

After your return, submit the Transcript of Records to the Erasmus Office. The Department’s Academic Unit will present the recognition request to the Board of Studies for approval. Once approved, the Student Registry Office will record the recognised exams, credits, and converted grades in your academic record.

Withdrawal from the Erasmus+ Mobility Period and Grant

You may withdraw from the Erasmus+ programme and renounce the grant even after initially accepting your place. 
In such cases, consult the Student Kit and contact the Settore Flussi Europei e Internazionali.
