How to apply
This page gives you details about how to apply.
Get departmental approval
Once you arrive on campus (during your first year) you should speak with the Study Abroad Adviser in your department to see if they support study abroad.
Each department has a Study Abroad Adviser. You must discuss your choices and obtain the full support of your department before submitting an application.
Your department must consider you to be in good academic standing at the time of application and you must successfully complete your first (or second) year of study at Sheffield.
Attend the Study Abroad & Erasmus Fair
In November, you should attend the Study Abroad Fair and collect an information pack. Full information will be provided at the Fair on how to apply for the programme.

Which year abroad?
If you are on a 3 year degree, you will apply in your first year and spend your second year abroad.
If you are on a 4 year degree, you should express your interest during your first year, and your department will let you know which year you will spend abroad.
Don't miss out!
The application process is a set cycle and is not flexible. Please ensure you look into the possibility of study abroad as soon as you arrive on campus.
