Placement Process for MAUI Institutions

NOTE: This information is for MAUI institutions only. Utrecht Network institutions should contact Michele Debay for the placement process for European students.

1. Recruit, advise, and select students to study at one of the participating Utrecht Network institutions. Your students will use your own application form - there is not a special application form for the MAUI-Utrecht Exchange Program. Information about the participating Utrecht universities can be found on the Institution Information Pages. 

2. Rank your students on the Student Nomination Form and email or fax it to the MAUI coordinator before the deadline. You can type directly on the form. The students who are ranked higher on the list will receive higher priority for placement. Please add comments where possible, ie. student has 4.0 GPA, last semester to study abroad, wants to do special research project with particular faculty member at this institution, etc. Nominations may be accepted after the March deadline, but the more competitive spots (Cork, Lund, Utrecht) are usually filled in the initial round of placements. 

3. Initial placements are made and the participating institutions are sent a list of nominated students. After the host institutions give provisional admission, the sending institution should contact the host institution to obtain necessary application forms and procedures. Contact information for each university is found on the Institution Information Pages.

4. Students complete the necessary application forms for the host institution. The student is not finally placed until the host institution has admitted the student. 

5. From this point, the sending and host institution correspond directly regarding the student(s). If there are any changes to placements, please notify the University of Missouri-St. Louis so the placement charts can be updated. If there are still spots available at an institution, you may still try to place a student there. 

6. If you have a student wanting to study abroad during the spring semester that has missed the March placement deadline, check the placement charts to see if the university still has spots available. If they do, send an email to the coordinator of incoming students, CC'ing the MAUI coordinator, to see if they would accept your student. Inform the MAUI coordinator of the final result to update the placement chart and to avoid other universities requesting spots that are unavailable.

7. As a final note, coordinators generally provide applications upon request, but it is extremely helpful if you can provide course bulletins and other information about your office and institution to the Utrecht Network members on an annual basis.
