KIT - INTL - Outgoing Students - Study Abroad - ERASMUS+

An extension is only possible in the same academic year, as the ERASMUS+ funds are tied to the academic year. A stay in the summer semester can therefore not be extended to the following winter semester.

Please note that an extension for stays in the academic year 2022/23 is excluded for administrative and financial reasons! The process described below is expected to apply from academic year 23/24 (start of the stay in winter semester 23/24).

If you extend your stay in the winter semester to the following summer semester, please note the following:

Check with the partner university (PHS) whether you can stay longer as an ERASMUS+ student. This decision lies with the PHS, as you have initially only been nominated for one semester. Afterwards, please obtain the approval of your faculty coordinator at KIT. Once both the PHS and your KIT faculty have agreed, we will confirm our agreement for the extension by e-mail to your contact at the host university. Send the e-mail address of the contact person at your host university to erasmus-out∂intl kit edu.
You must conclude a new Learning Agreement (LA) for the second semester, which must be signed by both the partner university and your faculty coordinator in Karlsruhe; i.e. you must also coordinate the extension in your faculty (can be done by e-mail). Please remember that you must return at least 20 ECTS credits per semester.
As things stand at present, we cannot guarantee you a scholarship for the summer semester, but you would of course have all the other ERASMUS benefits. After the submission of the new LA, we will certainly inform you whether funding for the extension is possible.

Please express your interest in an extension in Mobility Online after you have received approval for an extension from the host university and your faculty. However, this is only possible after you have uploaded the Learning Agreement "during the mobility" with all signatures (if there have been changes in your LA). Communicate your interest in an extension before January 15th of each year.

After you have entered your interest in an extension in Mobility Online, please upload the Learning Agreement for the new (2nd) semester.

The new Grant Agreement must be downloaded, scanned and signed and sent to erasmus-out∂intl.kit.edu by March 15 at the latest. Funding can only be granted upon receipt of the GA. You must send or hand in the original document by post to the IStO after your return. This is a prerequisite for the payment of the 2nd installment after the end of your mobility.
