Information

Process

Apply at AU with a prioritized list (~5 prioritized universities, see ITTU files)
Get the list accepted
Apply at target university, possibly get accepted
If not accepted, go to next university or if the list is exhausted, go to step 1

It’s mostly pretty tough work.

AUGO: Partner Universities

Here, you can find all the universities that AU has partner deals with. Search for University Wide agreements instead of Lateral if you want to study other fields than Arts (e.g. data science or neuroscience). A fantastic website that is apparently getting replaced with one of highly dubious quality (let’s hope it gets updated).

It has information on all universities where AU students have gone and reviews with a lot of information on each student’s trip. You will also notice several freemovers here (see freemover section). See a Cognitive Science student’s evaluation of Vermont University here: https://arts.augo.au.dk/Institution/Evaluation/4751. They also received a grant for their exhange semester.

Freemover

If you go to a partner university, you pay the same price as in Denmark (often free) for tuition. Then you pay for housing, food, etc. If you become a freemover (outside the partner universities) then you pay for the tuition youself as well. This can of course be done with scholarships, grants (Danish, EU, or international), etc.

An example of the process for a freemover can be seen here: https://arts.augo.au.dk/Institution/Evaluation/1773. This BSS student applied for Berkeley.
