Students must be enrolled at a FHNW partner university to apply for an exchange (and qualify for tuition fee waiver). Applications from partner universities are channelled through the International Coordinators at both institutions. YOU MUST NOT send the application directly to us either per post or electronically. Such applications are not valid. (Process: nomination by your home university and then if approved application per post sent by home university.)

*Either a certificate from an acknowledged examiner (e.g. Cambridge First ( A or B)/Advanced, TOEFL 530+ (paper based) or 76 (internet based), IELTS 6, ELP B2) or a personally signed letter from a lecturer or International Coordinator from the home university confirming the applicant has achieved a B2 level in English (that is, is of the level indicated by the examinations above). Visiting Students are not entitled to any special consideration in assignments or examinations due to perceived language disadvantages. They must meet language standards governing home students - for whom English is predominantly the second language as well.
