international exchange and study abroad

Study abroad is open to full time undergraduate students. You can chose to study a semester abroad during Level 5 or study a full year abroad which is taken as an additional year between Level 5 and Level 6. If you choose the full year option you will transfer on to a 4 year version of your course. It is important to speak with your course director to discuss which option works best for your course before applying.

You must seek approval from your Academic Advisor before submitting your application. Your application cannot be considered unless you have the support of your parent school.

It is not possible for you to go on exchange in your final year, as your studies would become increasingly specific and appropriate equivalents are not always available at our partner universities.

If you are interested in the programme you will need to begin the application during your first year so remember to give yourself plenty of time if you are looking to apply.

To study a year or a term abroad you must meet the following requirements by the end of the term in which you apply:

• Be enrolled and attending classes in a degree course at Leeds Beckett
• Have successfully passed all previous years of study
• No failed modules
• Achieve an average grade of 50% or higher in your previous years of study
• Meet the specific course requirements (check with your academic leader)
• Have your study abroad application endorsed by your school
