Student Mobility to VSB-TUO

Admission requirements and application procedure for student mobility to VSB-TUO

Students, who went through a selection procedure at their home university and after that were nominated, must apply to the university through an Online Application Form. Faculty coordinators from both universities might help you with application procedures.

A student must fill in personal information and the desired courses in the online application (recommended workload is 30 ECTS credits per semester) and submit a draft. After approval by a faculty coordinator from VSB-TUO (email confirmation will be sent) an Application Form containing a Learning Agreement will be prepared for downloading from a Summary of Application section (a printer icon). 

The Learning Agreement duly signed by both the student and the Responsible Person is the main document that must be sent. The scanned Learning Agreement, the Approval of language skills and a copy of the passport will be sent through the Online Application Form. The documents need to be in one pdf file.

The Grant Agreement will be signed after arrival. The scholarship will be sent to a Czech bank account then.
