1. The application calls for the indication of three destinations to be selected from the list of the Accademia’s partner institutions, which can be found as an attachment at the bottom of the page. It is essential to make a choice consistent with the student’s own educational path, evaluating  and analyzing the availability of courses which are feasible with the student’s study plan.
2. We would like to remind those students who are evaluating the different proposals for studying abroad, that in the case of University partners, the exchange is feasible at the University’s Faculty of Fine Arts. We strongly advise students to steer their research towards  corresponding courses to similar exams and to those chosen in the study plan (particularly for the three year courses), as they must be similar in content in order to be recognized.It is also preferable to look for practical, laboratory or workshop subjects in order to contain the difficulty of the foreign language.

1. Once the Announcement is closed, the Erasmus Office will make an internal selection and assign each student a destination, which may not always correspond to the requests of the student; in this case the Office commits itself, together with the candidate, to find a suitable destination. The selection will be made on the basis of the portfolio, the correspondence of the student’s profile with the academic offer of the foreign university and the availability of places.
2. The Erasmus Office will take the necessary steps to contact every student deemed eligible to continue the application process, by prior arrangement, to carry out the paperwork required in order to submit the application to the selected institution, which, according to its own time frame, will confirm whether or not to accept the application. In the event of a negative outcome, the Erasmus Office commits itself, in agreement with the student, to, if need be, proceed with another application, compatibly with the deadlines and availability of the partner institutions.

Participants, on their return after the period abroad, MUST fill in the EVALUATION REPORT online, as required by the European Community, to finalize the project with the registration of marks and credits carried out by the Erasmus Office.

In order to partecipate in the programmes students must SEND all the following documentation by EMAIL, WHICH MUST BE ELECTRONICALLY COMPILED IN EDITABLE WORD FORMAT, or alternatively, students can submit the documentation directly to the office using a USB stick.
