At first, you should consult your application with the Erasmus office at your home University. This way, you will ensure that there is an Agreement between your University and the CU. Please note that your nomination can be submitted only by your home university. Information about the nomination process is included in the CU Infosheet. The Erasmus+ coordinators of sending universities who do not have the CU Infosheet are warmly welcome to contact us at erasmus@ruk.cuni.cz.

How should I apply?


Once your nomination is accepted by CU, we will send you a confirmation email with further administrative steps. If you were nominated and have not received any information about the application process, please contact us at erasmus.incoming@ruk.cuni.cz.  


Follow the instructions in the confirmation email. After completing the online application form, please generate the Learning Agreement (LA) from the online application system. After that, please submit the document to your home university coordinator for approval and send the signed LA to CU. Documents should be sent directly to your host faculty ( please see the list of faculties and Erasmus+ coordinators below).   


How to fill in the online application form


When filling in the online application, please consult the points bellow.


Receiving institution section:

  • Important: please make sure that you filled out the right host faculty according to your nomination

Semester dates

  • Please note that the semester dates for Erasmus+ students are different from those for regular CU students and that they vary at each faculty.

  • Please see the table below and make sure that you fill out the correct dates into the online application since these are essential for your enrollment at the CU.

  • If you are applying for a traineeship/internship, the dates of your stay should be first discussed and confirmed individually with your host faculty coordinator.


Accommodation

  • If you wish to be accommodated at one of the CU's dormitories, please make your reservation in the online apllication section Information about Erasmus. This is the only correct way to book a place at the CU dormitories. The place in the dormitory will be assigned according to the capacities and your host faculty location. Please do not contact the dormitories directly regarding the reservation.

  • Detailed information about the facilities can be found here: https://cuni.cz/UKEN-365.html

  • Due to limited capacity, we can guarantee double rooms only. Special requirements (eg. single rooms) can be considered only in case of Ph.

How can I select courses for my Learning Agreement (LA)?

  • Students are obliged to select at least 51 % of the courses from their host faculty.

  • Please fill out all the courses you would like to attend.

  • Please select courses from the list of subjects offered for international students (mainly in English language): https://cuni.cz/UKEN-364.html

  • If you would also like to take courses from faculties other than your host faculty, you are welcome to do so. However, please note that due to capacity or other reasons, your acceptance to the courses may not be guaranteed and should be confirmed at the beginning of the semester. For more information, please contact the Erasmus+ coordinator at the relevant faculty.

  • Changes in your study plan can be done at the beginning of the semester. Please fill your changes into the relevant section of your LA and forward the document to your home university Erasmus+ coordinator and after that to the host faculty coordinator. Please do not send us LA without the faculty coordinator signature.
