Returning to Italy
As soon as you end your stay, submit the following documents to the International Mobility and Promotion Office:
- Certificate of Stay (scan copy) - Have the host university complete both the Arrival and Departure sections, and submit the certificate through the online platform available at this page, within ten days of the end of your Erasmus mobility. Log in with your University credentials.
During the upload, you will also need your ID/passport in .pdf format. The final Erasmus scholarship will be determined based on the start and end dates. Remember: virtual mobility periods are not granted any scholarships.
Furthermore, you will have to send the following to InformaStudenti - INTER Erasmus Study - After the Mobility:
- Learning Agreement, both the first version and any further changes, signed by the host and home university;
- Transcript of Records, i.e. the list of educational activities and exams, with the corresponding credits and grades. Should the transcript not be available at the time of your departure, ask your host university to send it to your email address and/or to the International Mobility Office of the University of Milan. Make sure we always receive an official copy;
- Any other document certifying the activities carried out abroad and the number of credits earned, if those are not included in the final Transcript of Records (e.g. thesis research, language courses etc).
Please visit the webpage of the Erasmus desk of your study programme (if present), or contact your Erasmus coordinator or Academic Office (Segreteria didattica), to check if you have to complete and send them a grade conversion form. Additionally, you will have to provide them with the following:
- Learning Agreement: the final version, signed by the responsible person at UniMi and by the one at your host institution;
- Transcript of Records (final and official version manually or digitally signed by the Host Institution – no screenshots nor photos allowed, no partial documents).
You will receive an e-mail from the Erasmus+ National Agency, inviting you to complete the online, compulsory end-of-stay report required for statistical and evaluation purposes.
Transfer credits for activities carried out abroad are not registered automatically: you must apply for recognition upon your return. The activities indicated in the approved Learning Agreement are recognized if the Transcript of Records shows that they are completed successfully.
Within 2 months of your return to Italy you must submit an application for transfer credits for exams and activities carried out abroad to your course management's office and to your Erasmus tutor. Here you can find the contacts for your study programme. Please provide your final Learning Agreement and your Transcript of Records.
Don't forget to submit any certificates of language courses and/or thesis work or laboratory activities, if previously approved.
The grades' conversion is through comparison between the ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) grading scale of the your degree programme and the grading scale of the programme abroad.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: we remind you that the International Mobility office is not responsible for credits recognition.
