Documents required for application for Bachelor / Master / PhD level students:

– Student certificate (in Albanian and officially translated into English / Italian, according to the study program);
– Letter of Motivation (in English / Italian, according to the study program);
– Foreign language certificate (level B1);
– *Learning Agreement document;
*Learning Agreement is a contract between the home university and the applicant and serves to determine the courses you will develop at the host university. You only need to complete the first section "Before Mobility". Table A defines the subjects and credits you will receive at the host university, while table B defines which of the subjects of Table A will be recognized at the University of Tirana when you have completed the exchange period.
ATTENTION: You must choose to take the same courses at the host university as you would take in the first semester at your faculty, so that the courses and credits are recognized when you return. If the courses you choose differ from those you would take at your faculty in the first semester, then when you return you must take the courses that do not fit at the University of Tirana.
The ''Learning Agreement'' document in the ''Commitment'' section is signed first by the applicant, by the coordinator at the department level, by the academic coordinator at the faculty level and then at the Rectorate by the Erasmus + Institutional Coordinator. If the student makes changes to courses during mobility, the During mobility section must be signed by the responsible person at the faculty and then by the responsible person at the Rectorate.
To download the Learning Agreement format click on the address:
Deadline for application: May 15, 2026, 10:00 AM.
