No, PROMOS does not offer exchange places at universities abroad. The PROMOS program funds stays abroad that have been organised by the students themselves. 

Before applying for a scholarship through PROMOS, students must have already been nominated for a study place abroad or organised an internship, language course, academic course or research trip abroad. The student then applies for a PROMOS scholarship to fund the independently organised stay abroad.

Evidence of this nomination, internship etc. must therefore be included with the application. The following documents count as evidence of the upcoming stay abroad:

• For study periods abroad: evidence of acceptance to an exchange programme and/or Letter of Acceptance from a university.
• Internships: Intership contract or confirmation of employment including the following details:
• • Name and place of institution
  • Name and birth date of intern
  • Supervisor/Contact at institution
  • Exact dates of intership duration
  • Signature and stamp of instution
• Language course: Confirmation of language course registration or evidence illustrating the length, time period and weekly hours (minimum 25) of the course.
• Academic course: Confirmation of registration from the foreign academic institution where the specialised course is offered or the preparatory e-mail correspondence and evidence of the respective specialised course offer.
