The method of application for Erasmus students depends on the level of study to be undertaken with us.
In order to determine how you should apply, you should firstly download our Erasmus Partner Universities document.
You will need a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat (downloadable from Adobe ) to view PDF file(s). PDF files open in a new window.
Look through the list to find the agreement we have with your home university. If the agreement indicates we have a UG (undergraduate) level agreement, you should apply on this page using our online system.
If the agreement indicates we have a PG (postgraduate) level agreement, you should not submit an online application, but should instead contact the person indicated in the document for details of their application process.
Before you enter our online system, you should download and print our 'How to Apply Online' guidance notes. We recommend that you work through these notes as you are completing your application.

As part of the online application you must complete, scan and upload the required supporting documentation.
For Erasmus Exchange students the required supporting documentation is listed below. You must download any forms marked * from our downloads section.
You will probably find it helpful to have all these documents scanned and ready before you begin your online application. Remember that we cannot fully consider your application until we have received all your supporting documents. There is no need for you to send us hard copies of anything once you have submitted your application online.
Before you apply you must follow your home university’s application procedure to secure nomination as an Erasmus Exchange student. Our Erasmus code is UK MANCHES01.
Please note that for January entry you should apply as early as possible, particularly if you wish to study any of our high-demand course units.
In the 'Getting Started' section of our 'How To Apply Online' guidance notes we advise how to select the correct Erasmus programme according to your duration/semester of study. Erasmus Medical students may study for a shorter time than a full semester however, for the purposes of completing the online application form, you should select the semester option that reflects the standard University of Manchester semester in which the majority of your module/block of study will be taken.
You should also upload a completed 'Erasmus Medical Applicants Study Block Details' form and a completed 'Erasmus Medical Applicants Confirmation of Good Standing' form (use the 'other' category when uploading each of these).
Medical students must also supply an English language proficiency certificate, showing that their English language score is at least IELTS 7.0 or equivalent.
Application deadlines for Erasmus medical students are earlier than the standard deadlines. This year the deadline is 9 March 2012.
If you wish to apply for University accommodation for the duration of your study with us, there is a separate online accommodation application procedure which you must complete. You cannot apply for accommodation until after you have received a formal offer letter from us. Your offer letter will contain details of how to apply for accommodation online.
