Step 1: Get confirmation from your home institution
Contact your home institution to make sure you are eligible to go on exchange for another semester.
Step 2: Inform us you want to prolong your stay
The international office needs to see the confirmation from your home institution in order to update your student status for next semester in our systems.
Send us an email at int-office@uia.no with the confirmation from your home institution attached.
Step 3: Apply for courses
Once your student status has been renewed for another semester, you need to apply for the courses you want to take.

Writing your Thesis?
If you are planning to write your Bachelor/Master Thesis you must still enroll in and take courses worth a minimum of 20 ECTS. UiA do not offer thesis supervisors.
Step 4: Practical information
- Remember to extent your housing contract, and note that your new housing contract cannot be terminated (fixed rental period). UiA cannot guarantee your contract with SiA will be renewed.
- Remember to register for the new semester in StudentWeb.
- Non-EU/EEA Nationals must remember to also extend their study permit.
