Who is an 'exchange' student?
The online application for the 'exchange' profile is open to students from partner universities with a bilateral student exchange agreement with the University of Granada. The exchange student’s home university will have to officially nominate its candidates so that they can complete their stay and be exempted from paying tuition fees for their studies at the UGR.
