Important information for your stay abroad

During a study-related stay abroad, you are responsible for your own insurance coverage and compliance with entry regulations. Please make sure that you have sufficient accident, liability and health insurance and inform yourself about the entry and visa regulations of your destination country. Accident, liability and health insurance is not provided by Bielefeld University.

You can also plan a study stay at a foreign Universities on your own, as a so-called Freemover. You have the option of applying independently to a foreign Universities as a guest student or you can use free placement organizations (e.g. College Contact, IEC Online, GOstralia/GOzealand, Institut Ranke Heinemann), which will help you with the application. With many placement organizations, you can indicate which teaching subjects you are studying, and can thus see at which universities it is possible to study teaching.

As a freemover, it is important to note that you are not exempt from tuition fees at the host university, unlike at cooperating universities.

On the website of the DAAD [German Academic Exchange Service] you can inform yourself about the study and living conditions in different countries.
