ENLIGHT

The application for blended mobility courses (courses that have both virtual and on-site components) is submitted electronically through Mobility-Online.

The application for virtual courses is submitted electronically through Mobility-Online.

The application for Summer/Winter Schools does not require registration through Mobility-Online. First, please check If there are registration instructions provided by the host university on the ENLIGHT Joint Courses Overview. If there are no instructions, please contact the UniBE ENLIGHT Mobility coordinator via: courses-enlight@unibe.ch.

All applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application at the end of the application period. Places are limited and your application is final. If for any unforeseen reason, you are unable to attend you must inform us immediately so that your place can be offered to another student. Students who have not been offered a place on their chosen course will be placed on a waiting list.

• You will be nominated to the host university that offers the course. Afterwards the host university will contact you and will send you the application information. Please read all the instructions carefully. You may be asked to include your academic transcript of records and the learning agreement (signed by you and your home university) with your application. If you have any questions about the application, you should first contact your coordinator at the International Office at the host university unless otherwise communicated.
• Once the host university has received and processed your application, you will receive an admission decision. The processing time for courses varies between host universities, so it may take some time before you receive your admission decision. Please note that although we offer you the opportunity to enroll on an ENLIGHT course, it is always the host university that decides whether or not you meet the requirements for admission.
• Once you have received your admission decision, you can start preparing for your course, including activities such as finding accommodation and transport to your destination.

• Students who are taking an ENLIGHT course abroad will need to arrange their own accommodation and travel to and from the location of the physical part of their blended mobility on their own.
