As a free mover student you are studying abroad without using the exchange agreements at our partner universities. This means that you can choose any university in the world as long as you get a pre-approval of courses from ITU. Note that you are responsible for the whole process.

As a rule-of-thumb, we advise you to start planning a year in advance. Make sure to tell the host university that you want to go as a freemover student as this will make communication easier.
