Study Abroad and exchange programmes for visiting students

Welcome to the Study Abroad and exchange site. These pages contain all the information that you require if you are studying outside the UK and would like to spend a semester or year abroad as part of your degree at your home institution.

There are three different programmes open to you, dependent upon:

  • whether or not we have a partnership agreement with your home institution; and
  • which subject(s) you are studying.

Study Abroad

The programme for students currently studying at a university that does not have an exchange agreement with Kingston University. View a list of our Study Abroad partners.

For this programme, Kingston charges tuition fees which are normally paid by the home institution.

International exchange (non-EU)

The programme for students studying at one of the non-EU universities with whom Kingston has an exchange agreement. View a list of our international exchange partners.

This is similar to the Study Abroad programme, the main difference being that the home and host institution both exchange students so no tuition fees are charged at the receiving institution.

Erasmus/European exchange

The programme for students currently studying at a European university with whom we have an Erasmus/European exchange agreement. These agreements are generally subject-specific. View a list of our current Erasmus/European exchange partners.

For this programme, the home and host institution both exchange students so no tuition fees are charged at the receiving institution.

Please note that Erasmus exchanges are not currently open to health and social care students.
