Exchange Programs

updated: June 16, 2011, 2:17 p.m.

İstanbul Bilgi University supports two kinds of student exchange program: Erasmus and bilateral. By far the most popular type of exchange takes place under the rubric of the EU Erasmus system where students may spend a semester or full academic year at a European partner university earning credits toward graduation at BİLGİ. Participation in such exchanges is contingent upon application and acceptance by the university-wide Erasmus Exchange Committee. Students selected for such exchanges receive a monthly stipend toward their overseas living expenses during their period of study in Europe. They are exempt from paying tuition to the partner university, but must pay tuition at BİLGİ if they are not on scholarship. Bilateral exchanges take place with partner universities outside of the Socrates-Erasmus system, such as those in North America. Students participating in such exchanges do not pay tuition to the partner university but are fully responsible for all travel and living expenses while abroad.
