Current exchange student

We hope that you are having a great exchange semester during here at Örebro University! On this page, you will find relevant information for current exchange students.

Remember, if you have any questions you are always welcome to the Info Centre in the middle of Långhuset ('the long house') on campus. Our colleagues will happily assist you and point you in the right direction.

Örebro University does not have an official add/drop period for courses. As a result, course changes for exchange students are highly restricted. To be eligible for a course change, all of the following conditions must be met:

There are available seats in the desired course: 

  • There are available seats in the desired course.
  • You meet the eligibility requirements for the course.
  • We receive confirmation from your home university coordinator that there is a valid academic reason for the change
    OR
    There is a scheduling conflict that qualifies as follows: a clash between two mandatory course sessions, or a clash of at least three non-mandatory course sessions.

If this applies to your situation, please complete the following form (one form per course change): Request for course change during the semester

Örebro University provides its own Certificate of Arrival and Certificate of Departure and we do not complete individual forms upon request. If your home university requires proof of your arrival, kindly use the certificate we have issued in the beginning of the semester.

You will receive a certificate of departure automatically on the date that you have sated in the housing office departure form.

Your home university has been informed of our process, so this should not pose any issues. If they still require a different form or document, we kindly ask that your coordinator contact us directly with the relevant form.

A transcript proves that you are or have been a student at Örebro University. You can create different digital transcripts yourself in Studenttjänster.

Please read more how you can create/order your transcript.
