Mobility schedule

Calendar

September - October: Information

Information sessions are being held. They are first led by the central mobility teams and then organized by academic division for each program.
You can also schedule individual appointments with the International Relations Office or your coordinator to learn more about your LEO profile.

Dates and information regarding the various activities and the campaign are sent by email (via the institutional email address) to students in the programs involved in the mobility program and are available in the international calendars, on LEO, and on this page. 
(at the bottom of the page, in the box labeled "Not there that day?")

October - November: The application

During the application period, workshops are offered by the component to help you draw up the various elements of your application: CV, covering letter and projected budget. You must attend at least one of these workshops for your application to be eligible.
An individual meeting with the coordinator must also be scheduled to validate provisional course choices and the project as a whole.

Year 26/27: The application form will be available from October 14 through November 12

October - November/January: Language tests

Some destinations require you to obtain a language certification (TOEFL, IELTS, CLES, etc.). It is essential to take the tests early enough to receive your results in time for the selection committees!
Visit the SDL website to see the sessions offered at UGA:Language Services - Language Certifications

UGA Programs: Results must be sent to the departmentby December 10 at the latest.
LLASIC Programs: Results must be sent to the departmentby February 10 at the latest.

December - January: Central selection

Applications for destinations common to the UGA are pre-selected by the component and then submitted to the central commission in early January.
Students have the right to make up to 3 requests for these destinations. If none of these are accepted, the component destinations will be studied in February.

Central Commission (UGA destinations): January 13, 2027

February: Component selection

This commission mainly concerns Erasmus network destinations, but also certain non-EU agreements specific to each component/department (notably destinations in the UK).

LLASIC Faculty Committee (program outcomes): late February 2027

January - June: Partner application

Once the selection process is complete, the university nominates the students to its partners, and a second application must be made to the host university. Depending on the destination, the application timetable can vary enormously, from January to June... So there's no need to compare with your colleagues: each university, or even course of study, has its own timetable!

April: Scholarship applications

Information meetings are held in March/April on the various funding possibilities, followed by a form to fill in, depending on the scholarships available for each destination.

April - June: Visa application

If your destination requires a visa, it's advisable to apply as early as possible, as embassies can sometimes take a long time to process.

April - July: logistics

Book your plane ticket, find accommodation, take out insurance... It's important to anticipate your departure so that you can leave with peace of mind in the autumn!
Some cities are experiencing housing crises of varying severity, so find out as soon as possible about the situation and prices in your host city, so you don't find yourself stuck at the end of the summer! Most universities offer a housing assistance service for exchange students.

Pay close attention to the information and deadlines provided by your host university! 

July: re-registration at UGA

Not only do you need to validate your year to be able to go on mobility the following year, but you also need to remember to re-register! It's best to do this during the early registration period in July, especially if your host university's calendar is more advanced than that of UGA.
If you don't re-register at UGA, you won't be able to study abroad!
