Welcome back! We hope you had a rewarding and enriching experience during your exchange. On this page, you will find information about how to apply for credit transfer for your completed courses, submit your travel report, and, if you participated in Erasmus+, complete the final steps required to receive the remaining part of your Erasmus+ grant.
Apply for credit transfer after your exchange
After completing your exchange, you need to apply for credit transfer for the courses you have completed.
Before you can apply, you must receive an official Transcript of Records from your host university. The transcript must be issued in English and provided as an original document. It is your responsibility to find out how your transcript will be delivered. It may be sent directly to you or to your international coordinator at Chalmers.
Once you have received your Transcript of Records, you can submit your application for credit transfer. Credit transfer is not processed automatically, so you are responsible for submitting the application.
If you have any questions about the credit transfer process, please contact the Director of Studies of your programme.
About transfer of credits
As a student who has studied at a Swedish or foreign institution, you can apply to have some of your education credited towards your degree.
Travel Report
After your exchange, you are required to write a travel report in English. The report is mandatory for all Chalmers exchange students and will be published in Chalmers' exchange portal, where it serves as a valuable resource for future exchange students.
Exceptions
Students who completed their exchange at Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU) in Taiwan and participated in the production of Asia Magazine at CITO are not required to submit a travel report.
Submission and Deadlines
The travel report must be submitted digitally via the Travel Report form in the MoveON portal.
For exchanges during the full academic year or the spring semester, the submission deadline is 10 September. For exchanges during the autumn semester, the deadline is 1 March.
If you participated in Erasmus+
After your Erasmus+ exchange, you need to complete a few final steps before the remaining part of your Erasmus+ grant can be paid.
You must upload your travel report, Departure Certificate/Departure Form, and Learning Agreement in MoveON. You are also required to complete the mandatory EU Participant Survey, which will be sent to you by email after your return.
All required documents must be submitted and approved before your final grant payment can be processed. If additional documentation is needed to verify your mobility period, such as a certificate from your host university confirming your study dates, you will receive further instructions during or after your exchange.
Applications are processed and payments are prepared twice a month, at the beginning and in the middle of each month. Once your final payment has been forwarded to the Finance Department, you will receive a confirmation email.
If you have any questions about Erasmus+, your grant payment, or the required documentation, please contact erasmus@chalmers.se.
Become an Exchange Ambassador
Would you like to share your exchange experience and inspire future Chalmers students to study abroad?
As an Exchange Ambassador, you can take part in information events, answer questions from students preparing for their exchange, and participate in presentations and other activities related to exchange studies. You will receive financial compensation for your work.
