Every semester FDV issues a public notice on the selection of students interested in the Institution Exchange Program to be held on the following semester. All the students can apply for the available vacancies. At the moment, we have three international Universities as partners welcoming undergraduate students: in Spain, Castilla University – La Mancha and, in Portugal, both Coimbra University and New Lisbon University. In these institutions, FDV students do not have any costs with registration or tuition. However, students must pay for additional costs such as housing, food, transportation, etc.

The criteria used for the selection of applicants will be their GPA, their engagement with extra activities (study groups, workshops, research, tutoring, seminars, congresses, article publication, extension activities, etc.), and their knowledge of foreign languages. Each extra activity has a different score, according to the chart attached to each public notice.

Students from partner institutions that are part of the undergraduate mobility program must get in touch with the institution’s own International Affairs Office for information on internal applications. FDV accepts applications from students from partner institutions up to November 15th for exchange programs to be held in the first semester (February to July) and up to June 15th for exchange programs to be held in the second semester (August to December).

At FDV, the international students do not have any costs with registration or tuition. However, they must pay for additional costs such as housing, food, transportation, etc.

Students from other institutions or from institutions that do not have a mobility program for undergraduate students must get in touch with the FDV International Affairs Center and need to respect the same deadlines as students from partner institutions. The deadlines are up to November 15th for exchange programs to be held in the first semester (February to July) and up to June 15th for exchange programs to be held in the second semester (August to December).

The applicant must be a Law undergraduate student in any international institution accredited by the Government of the country where it belongs. In addition, the applicant must have the consent of his/her University.
