Det första valet du står mellan om du planerar att läsa utomlands är att läsa som
utbytesstudent eller som freemover. Att läsa som utbytesstudent innebär att du använder dig
av de avtal som Högskolan i Borås har med universitet över världen. Den termin du läser
utomlands tillgodoräknas när du kommer tillbaka och du behöver inte betala några
terminsavgifter på den skola du väljer. Som utbytesstudent behöver du inte göra något
språktest.
Att läsa som freemover innebär att du själv väljer vilket universitet du ska läsa på. Detta kan
du göra om skolan du vill gå på inte har ett avtal med högskolan i Borås. Fördelen är att du
inte är bunden vid vem högskolan har avtal med. Nackdelarna är att du ofta måste betala
terminsavgift vid den skola du väljer, du själv ansvarar för att ta fram information om dina
studier och du inte är försäkrad via högskolan utan måste ordna en egen försäkring. Även som
freemover kan du få dina studier tillgodoräknade när du återkommer. Du söker som vanlig
student och antagning sker med urval på dina betyg eller ansökningsprover. Ofta krävs det
också att du gör ett språktest.
Steg 1 om du vill studera som utbytesstudent är att lämna in en intresseanmälan till mig. Detta
eftersom platserna på våra partneruniversitet är begränsade och om fler studenter söker än vad
som finns platser så behöver vi göra ett urval. Sista datum för inlämning för BC och TPU
är:15 feb. En intresseanmälan är inte bindande.
Skulle fler söka till ett partneruniversitet än vad som finns platser så måste vi göra ett urval.
Urvalet baseras på bland annat avslutade kurser och betyg,( dvs. har du tagit alla dina poäng).
Mer information står i intresseanmälan blanketten. Ni behöver i er ansökan rangordna vilka
universitet ni ansöker om.
www.stars.liu.se Om du åker som Erasmus student är du skyldig att efter hemkomsten fylla i
en STARS rapport på deras hemsida. (Men även de som åker utanför Europa ska fylla i denna
för att det ska finnas samlade erfarenheter för de som planerar att åka ut.) Denna hemsida är
en jättebra källa för information för er som planerar att åka utomlands. På hemsidan finns
reseberättelser och rapporter från utbytesstudenter från hela Sverige. Sök upp det universitet
ni planerar att åka till och se vad tidigare utbytesstudenter har haft för erfarenheter, i vissa fall
har studenter också lämnat ut sina e-mailaddresser så att ni kan maila dem specifika frågor om
det universitet ni funderar på att välja.

Mönchengladbach has around 266 000 inhabitants, making it the largest town on the
left bank of the lower Rhine. It takes its name from the Benedictine Monks who
founded an Abbey on the Gladbach (a narrow brook) in around 974.
The Middle Ages saw linen weaving emerge in Mönchengladbach, later to be replaced
by cotton spinning in the 18th century. Further progress led to a flourishing textile and
garment trade with a whole range of guilds and trades forming as well. Today, industry
focuses on steel, mechanical and automotive engineering plus electrical and food
industries. Yet, the remaining textile manufacturers still enjoy an excellent international
reputation.
