Applications for short-term study

Applications

Completed forms

Please send your completed application to the International Office. We are happy to answer any queries you might have.

When you are applying you must provide the following:

If your home university has an agreement with the University of Kent then please liaise directly with their Study Abroad Office when you apply. If your university does not currently have an agreement with us we consider direct applications for short-term study but it is your responsibility to liaise with your home institution about any acceptance for credit of your study at Kent.

Choosing your modules

If you want to take a diploma, please ensure that you list the correct modules on your form.

If you are choosing from programmes within Humanities or Social Sciences, please select the modules you would like to study, in order of preference. Since some modules are occasionally unavailable or are fully subscribed, we advise you to list some additional modules.

  • Full year: Therefore, if you are going to be at Kent for a full academic year, please list modules worth 180 credits, in order of preference.
  • Semester: If you are going to be at Kent for one semester, please list modules worth 90 credits, also in order of preference.

If you are choosing a programme within Science, Technology and Medical Studies, please list your major course interests only and do not select a full range of modules. We will then arrange an individual programme for you in discussion with advisers. If you need advice on how to apply or module choice, please contact Hazel Lander in the International Office.
