Eligibility Criteria:
To be eligible for the Sciences Po Undergraduate College exchange programme (FR) (Bachelor’s level), students from partner universities must have completed at least four semesters of university studies and have been nominated by their home university.
Exchange students can take courses in English or French, depending on their home university’s requirements. They study at the Undergraduate College alongside all the other Sciences Po students, so are fully integrated into the Sciences Po student body even if they choose a curriculum taught entirely in English.
Please note: exchange students are asked to explain in their cover letter to Sciences Po why they want to study on the campus for which they were nominated by their home university. As such, they need to have the level of language proficiency required for that campus.
