FAQ

How can I apply to one of the courses offered on eMOVIES?

To apply for one of the courses offered by eMOVIES, you must contact the person responsible for the Internationalization Office of your educational institution, since application for a course cannot be made directly by the student. When you are looking for a platform course, it gives you the option to send the eMOVIES manager of your institution an admission application so that your institution can start the process with the HEI that offers the course.

How is the application and student selection process for mobility in eMOVIES?

The process is the following:

  • The student must choose the course of their interest using the search engine on the eMOVIES platform website.
  • Through the platform, you can send the eMOVIES manager at your institution the Admission Application to apply for mobility in that course. (The student can also communicate directly with the eMOVIES manager at their institution to process said application).
  • The eMOVIES manager contacts the student to verify if they meet the requirements and to complete the mobility application.
  • The origin HEI must select the candidates that they want to apply for mobility, guaranteeing that they meet the requirements of the destination HEI.
  • The origin HEI send the mobility request to the destination HEI.
  • The destination HEI examines the applications and makes the decision to select the students that they will admit according to the available places or other criteria that they consider pertinent.
To whom should the application be sent or where should it be loaded?

The application must be processed directly between the International Relations Office (ORI) of the requesting and offering institution. The request must be sent by the eMOVIES manager at the origin ORI to the eMOVIES manager at the destination ORI.
