Catherina Schwaiger (Student Board Representative – CEMS Club Vienna)

 “A really important tip: be sure to plan enough time for the application process (and maybe not just the evening before the deadline, I promise that will be stressful) since there are many steps and requirements. For instance, check if you have the necessary English certificate, all important documents etc. And when writing your motivational letter, try to be authentic and think about what YOU can contribute to the CEMS network.” (Catherina Schwaiger – Student Board Representative – CEMS Club Vienna)

Korbinian Lorenz (President – CEMS Club Vienna)

“For the application itself, take your time and take a look at the possible exchange universities. You have to give your Top-10 directly when applying so it is good to know them and not do it last minute.  If you made it to the interview round, first of all congratulations, second being yourself is probably the one thing you’ve read the most but it’s true! Collaborate with your peers, don’t play the toxic Alpha and run others over. Discuss and share your own opinions even though you disagree.” (Korbinian Lorenz – President CEMS Club Vienna)

Julia Braunauer (First year student)

“First, take enough time for your application because it takes some time to get all relevant documents. Second, think carefully about your ranking for your exchange semester. And keep in mind that you can indicate in that ranking whether you want to go on exchange in term 2 (winter semester), term 3 (summer semester) or you are the CEMS Office will assign you click on equal.” (Julia Braunauer, First year student)
