Application Process — 12 steps

A structured sequence coordinated between your home institution and Unicollege.

  1. 1

    Program Promotion and Materials

    Home universities receive official materials from Unicollege — application form, student guidebook, information sheet — and launch their internal study-abroad promotion. Typical windows:

    • September–October for the Spring semester
    • January–February for the Fall semester
  2. 2

    Application through Home Institution

    Students apply through their home university. Institutions with a limited number of places may conduct an internal selection based on academic merit or other institutional criteria.

  3. 3

    Nomination Submission

    The home university formally submits the list of nominated students to Unicollege for review.

  4. 4

    Review and Eligibility Confirmation

    Unicollege reviews nominations, verifies eligibility and confirms student participation.

  5. 5

    Completion of Application Materials

    Selected students complete the full Unicollege application, including:

    • Academic information
    • Housing preferences
    • Meal plans
    • Visa requirements (if applicable)
    • Insurance and required documentation

    All materials are submitted directly to Unicollege.

  6. 6

    Final Approval

    Unicollege confirms approval of applications and informs the home university when applicable.

  7. 7

    Arrival and Orientation

    Students are expected to arrive 3–5 days prior to the start of the semester for check-in and orientation.

  8. 8

    Academic Calendar

    Students follow the Unicollege calendar for their chosen term (see table above).

  9. 9

    Program Duration & Visa Considerations

    Standard duration is 90 days for visa-free students and 90+ days for students holding a study visa. Students staying longer than 90 days must follow visa procedures.

  10. 10

    Make-up and Completion Flexibility

    Make-up sessions or remaining examinations may be completed online if a student returns early, subject to prior approval by both the home university and Unicollege.

  11. 11

    Transcripts

    Upon successful completion, Unicollege issues and sends the official transcript of records listing all completed courses and grades.

  12. 12

    Credit Transfer

    The home university evaluates and transfers credits in accordance with its own academic policies.
