Nomination and Application

Students wanting to come to TU Delft for an exchange period will need to be nominated by their home university (a partner to TU Delft). The faculties and the central exchange team will contact all partners before the nomination process opens with more details. The nominations need to be sent by the home university to TU Delft before the nomination deadlines, and per semester. Should there be delays with the nomination process, which could affect the application deadline of the student, the student must go ahead and apply before the deadline.

The Home Institution is responsible for screening and selecting their students. The selected students must satisfy the admission requirements for non-degree exchange students of TU Delft. Each exchange student will be selected on the basis of academic merit, scholarly interest, their English language level, and other factors as may be agreed upon by both Institutions. It is an advice that students have a cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of at least 70% to be able to successfully study at TU Delft, receiving a minimum of 20 EC’s. Nominated students must have completed at least one year of study at their home university prior to starting their exchange at TU Delft.

TU Delft reserves the right to reject students with a lower CGPA.

All nominated students must be made aware that they must attend classes and take all examinations/courses before the end of the exchange period. No extensions will be given to re-sit examinations physically or online outside of the exchange semester period. All students must be physically present for the whole exchange period, no online exchange is possible.

Please read the information below very carefully before you start the application procedure.

Read the manual for ‘application Studielink’ before you apply.
Check the faculty course lists where you plan to do all of your courses. If you plan to do some courses at another faculty, ensure you read their course list too.
Be sure you understand the restrictions and requirements to take your chosen courses before applying. Choosing courses that are not available to you or choosing the wrong faculty can delay your application process.
TU Delft's faculties cannot guarantee a place on any individual course as each course placement is subject to availability, the fulfilment of certain preconditions, and timetabling factors.
We advise exchange students to be flexible and, before arrival at TU Delft, have alternative courses ready and approved by your Home Institution academic advisors.
