Application Procedure
Step 1 – Nomination (contact your Erasmus coordinator)
If you wish to come to study at Charles University as an Erasmus student, your home university must officially nominate you. In the first instance, therefore, you must contact the ERASMUS coordinator at your home university.
Step 2 – Online Registration
Please note that this is an obligatory process – so if you have filled in the standard forms (on paper) without registering online, we must still ask that you register online.
Detailed information about online registration is sent by European Office after your nomination. You can also consult university webpage for incoming students.
On-line Registration is available at following website:
Step 3 – Confirmation of Essential Forms: Application Form and Learning Agreement
Study periods
The printed-out forms should be checked and confirmed/signed by the relevant coordinators of your home university.
The curriculum: General Medicine / Dentistry
Erasmus students are integrated to groups with regular students. Due to this fact, availability of courses is not guaranteed as their capacity may be strictly limited.
5th year courses are taught in blocks during the whole academic year.
Note that 6th year courses of General Medicine are reserved only for traineeships.
It is possible to combine courses from different years, both obligatory and optional. Although, we do not recommend an exceeding combination, since possible schedule overlaps are students’ responsibility to manage.

Step 4 – Sending Documents
