Before mobility:

  • With the consent of the Faculty of Social Sciences, IRO contacts the student and provides him/her with information on mobility regarding administration, accommodation, legalization of stay, etc.
  • The student chooses the subjects to study from the list and fills in the OLA. The OLA is signed and approved by the authorized faculty representative (faculty Erasmus coordinator). The student announces the result to the faculty coordinator. The faculty coordinator signs OLA.
  • IRO at UCM will ensure the announcement of mobility at SD and SH, and mediates the teaching of the Slovak language
  • The IRO contacts the ESN (Erasmus Student Network), which assigns a buddy student to the incoming student as a contact person for in-stay support.
