IMPORTANT! Applications are possible for the faculties mentioned above; however, in all cases, the application must be approved by the respective Faculty, not by the Mobility Office. After the form has been completed, we will inform the student of the final decision on whether we are able to host them.
We would like to inform students that we cannot issue a Letter of Acceptance until the respective clinic confirms that they are able to host them.
How to Apply
We only accept applications submitted via the online form. Applications sent by email are no longer accepted. All fields in the form must be completed. You must also upload a completed draft of the Learning Agreement for Traineeships. This is required so that the clinics can see what the student intends to do during the traineeship.
If this document is not completed and uploaded, the application will be considered invalid.
Please note that our Mobility Office may not necessarily send a separate notification to the student about an invalid submission.
Application form📝: https://forms.gle/BKsfD2byriwFNVxM9
Final confirmation regarding acceptance: at least 5–6 weeks (please submit your application accordingly).
IMPORTANT! We kindly ask students to take this into account and to read the rules and conditions on our website carefully.

Other students also come to our office for administrative procedures.
Upon Arrival – When the Student is Already Here at Semmelweis University

Activation Guide
4th Step:
After e-mail activation, the student must book an appointment for the Medical Aptitude Test. This is compulsory; the traineeship cannot start/continue without it. The Health Booklet is required for the test, and the doctor will record in it that the student attended the examination and whether the student is medically fit.
IMPORTANT! The aptitude test must be completed within 1–1.5 weeks after arrival. If this does not happen and the doctor does not confirm fitness in the booklet, the traineeship must be interrupted, and we will not issue the closing documents at the end of the traineeship.
5th Step:
We provide a temporary student card for the period of your stay. The student can request this from the Registrar’s Office.
