Who can come to the University of Jordan (UJ) as an exchange
student?
To come to UJ as an exchange student, your home university must
have a formal agreement for exchange studies with UJ. This can
either be a specific faculty agreement (or even a specific
department agreement) or it can be a university-wide agreement.
Check with the International Office at your university (either
the central office or at your faculty/department) to see if
there is an agreement with UJ and if you are eligible to go on
an exchange. Your International Office can also explain what
subject areas you can study as an exchange student, as defined
through the particular exchange agreement in place with UJ.
How to be nominated for an exchange to UJ
You apply for an exchange at your home university through your
central International Office. Your university has its own
procedures that you must follow. Your home university will be
able to inform you about the nomination process for their
students to go on an exchange and their specific requirements.
They can also inform you about coming for one semester (half
year) or two semesters (one year) of study. It is important that
you have sufficient proficiency in English language. However
please check with your home university regarding the required
levels to be nominated for an exchange to UJ, as per the
agreement in place between the two universities.
When to apply
The deadline for the fall semester (starts usually around mid
September) is early July. The deadline for the spring semester
(starts usually late January or early February) is early
December. Our deadlines are slightly flexible. However, we
strongly recommend that you submit a complete application as
close to the deadlines as possible to ensure timely
processing.
