APPLICATION PROCEDURE FOR ERASMUS+ STUDENTS
You can apply to the Faculty of Organisation Stuides in Novo mesto as an exchange student if your home institution is a partner institution of the Faculty of Organisation Studies in Novo mesto.
Step 1: Your home institution/faculty should first nominate you to the Erasmus+ Coordinator at the Faculty of Organisation Studies in Novo mesto. Nominations should be sent by email to the following address: erasmus@fos-unm.si.
Step 2: After your home university/faculty has nominated you for exchange studies, you should complete and submit the application form (OBR-FOS-093). You do not need to submit the application in paper form; it is sufficient to send it signed and scanned.
Step 3: After we receive your application and your host university has approved your application, we will send you a signed learning agreement and information about living and studying in Novo mesto.
When a student arrives in Slovenia, he/she visits the Erasmus+ coordinator of the Faculty of Organisation Studies (before starting his/her studies or traineeships) to gain a basic understanding of the procedures, obligations, rights and also cultural adjustment. For easy integration in the learning process, a tutor student is also available for the new students.
Upon arrival, new students have an orientation session with members of the Office of Student Affairs, the Office of International Affairs, and the Dean of the Faculty of Organisation Studies, who introduce them to the institution, their role, and their wider environment. The incoming students are also familiarised with relevant information about studying and accommodation in Slovenia (at FOŠ).
Knowledge of the Slovenian language is not required. The courses for the new students at the Faculty of Organisation Studies in Novo mesto are provided in English. However, according to the inter-institutional agreements, the new students are expected to be fluent in English. Verification of the new students' language proficiency should be done through the OLS system (Online Linguistic System) at their home institutions. If the language skills of incoming students are not sufficient, the online English course in the OLS system should be completed before arrival in Slovenia.
