Nominating students for exchange

Below, you can find an overview of when we accept nominations as well as the application deadline for students.

Since it can take some time to prepare our systems for each nomination window, we cannot say exactly when we open up for nominations. We aim to open up in early March/August, but it can be a little later. 

You can nominate your students in our nomination portal (Mobility Online) here:

Nomination portal

Once you have logged in, you can nominate students by clicking on "My Mobility-Online" and then "Nominate student".

It is very important that the student's gender and date of birth are correct when nominating. If these are not correct, the student will have problems later on with UCPH's IT systems.

When you have completed the nomination, click on the "SEND NOMINATION" button.

Nomination deadline: 15 April

The nomination deadline for our autumn semester 2025 is 15 April. 

Do not nominate trainee or PhD students

Please note that we cannot accept nominations for trainee or PhD students. If you have questions about how these students can apply, contact us at incomingmobility@adm.ku.dk.

Change to minimum ECTS requirements

UCPH no longer sets a minimum course load for incoming exchange students; however, we expect students to take at least 22.5 ECTS per semester.

Important for non-EU/EEA/Swiss citizens
Citizens of countries outside the EU/EEA/Switzerland are required to study full-time in order to meet the requirements in their residence permits. To be considered as studying full-time, the minimum course load is 22.5 ECTS per semester.

We have provided an overview of frequently asked questions here:

If you cannot find the answer on our FAQ page, you are of course welcome to contact us at incomingmobility@adm.ku.dk.

Once we have processed the nominations, we will invite the students to create their own login for Mobility Online. Below is a summary of the process, but students can find more information about the application procedure on our website for exchange students here:

https://studies.ku.dk/study-abroad/

Application deadline: 1 May

The students must log in to Mobility Online and submit their applications by 1 May (or preferably before). Students can save their application and access it later by logging in again.

Once students have submitted their applications, we will review them and contact them if we have any questions.

Application results: Early May

We will send the application results to the students in early May, shortly after the application deadline. It is important that students submit their applications by the deadline (and preferably before), so that we can review them as soon as possible.

Course selection: May

Please note that students do NOT choose their courses/subjects in their application. Once accepted, we will invite the students to choose the courses they want to take. Due to internal course registration deadlines at the faculties, it can take 8–12 weeks before the student's course choices are reviewed and confirmed.

Any questions?

If you or the students have any questions about the application process, please contact us at incomingmobility@adm.ku.dk.
