There are 3 ways to come to FEN as an exchange student:

1. As a student enrolled in one of our partner institutions and who is nominated according to the exchange agreements in place.
2. As a student nominated by the PME (Universidad de Chile’s central international office).
3. As an independent free-moving student, for which you will have to pay fees for the courses you take during your semester at FEN. You can find more information about free-mover fees here.

For information on the conditions and steps to follow to take part in an exchange at FEN, contact the international office at your university/school. If you are selected by your university/school, your nomination will be sent to us, at which point you can apply to the FEN exchange program.

Please be mindful that each step must be completed on specified dates. See dates below.

If you need the original version of the acceptance letter, you should request it via your exchange coordinator (or write to us directly if you are a free-mover student).
