Exchange Students

RMC student exchanges are organised within the framework of the Erasmus+ or Nordplus programmes.

Applicants for exchange at RMC must apply through the online application system EASY. (Outgoing exchange for RMC students, please see RMC INTRA).

Conditions

• Students applying for an exchange period at RMC must have completed at least one year of bachelor studies in their home institution before the exchange.
• It is possible to apply for exchange at all RMC programmes except Nordic Master - the composing musician (NoCoM) and Advanced postgraduate diploma (Soloist). Please find the RMC programmes here:  Bachelor programmes and Master programmes.
• RMC accepts exchange applications for the whole academic year or the autumn semester only.
• Exchange students at RMC must have subjects corresponding to full merit (30 ECTS per semester)

Possibilities

It is possible to apply for exchange at:

• Bachelor 2nd year:
  • Music Performance
  • Composition
  • Music Production
  • Music Management (tuition only in Danish)
     
• Bachelor 3rd year:
  • Music Production

• Master 1st year:
  • Music Performance
  • Music Creation
  • Music Education

On Bachelor 3rd year and Master 2nd year all internal RMC students (except Ba3 Music Production) have an external fall semester outside the RMC campus. That is why these are not applicable for incoming exchange.
However, if it can be approved by your home institution, it is possible to apply for exchange at BA2 even though you will be a BA3 student at home - and possible to apply for exchange at MA1 even though you will be an MA2 student at home.

Deadline

• Application deadline is 1 March
• We normally open up for applications 15 January.
• Please note that in the EASY Mobility Online application system there is a process connected to the sending institution and several steps to be completed before the application can be finally submitted to the receiving institution. So make sure to begin in due time before 1 March.
• Admissions decisions will be communicated through the application system EASY Mobility Online in April/May.
