Student mobility for study - Incoming

To participate in a study abroad program under Erasmus+, you must be registered at a higher education institution and enrolled in a program leading to a recognized degree or other tertiary-level qualification.

Your period of study abroad must be relevant to the study programme you are currently following.

Your university’s responsible contact (usually the Erasmus+ coordinator or a representative of the International office) must submit your nomination to UNG by the specified deadline. Nominations should be sent to international.office@ung.si.

Deadlines for nominations:

Winter semester: 1st June
Summer semester: 15th October

Deadlines for applications:

Winter semester: 15th June
Summer semester: 31st October

After your nomination for mobility at UNG, you will be required to complete an Application Form. Along with the completed and signed application form, you must submit:

a motivation letter,
CV,
a copy of your identification document,
transcript of records, and,
if applying to the Academy of Arts, a portfolio.

You may also be invited to an interview.

Proficiency in English at a B1 level is mandatory for admission to the University of Nova Gorica (UNG).

Here you can find the course catalogue for the 2025/26 academic year, listing the courses offered in English or in a combined format within the individual UNG schools.

Course Catalogue for Erasmus+ students

UNG organizes Slovene language courses for international students during the academic year through the UNG Language Centre. If we are unable to offer a Slovene language course during your mobility period, we will suggest other institutions that provide such courses, or you may use Slovene Learning Online.

The International Office will make every reasonable effort to assist incoming students in arranging suitable accommodation, provided this is indicated in the application form. Otherwise, you will need to find the appropriate accommodation by yourself.

The University of Nova Gorica (UNG) does not provide insurance for incoming students. You are therefore required to have health insurance valid in Slovenia/EU for the entire duration of your mobility. Please submit proof of your health insurance by email to international.office@ung.si at least 2 weeks before your arrival, otherwise, your mobility may be rejected.
