You must complete your “Exchange abroad” profile on RISE (check Step 1 - Get your Exchange profile ready)
HOW DOES THE UNIVERSITY ALLOCATION PROCESS WORK?
Universities are allocated according to a ranking that is based on your academic results. Depending on the number of students, the OFL takes place in several stages of allocation e.g., students classified from 1 to 150 (wave 1) make their choices first, then students classified from 151 to 300 (wave 2)
HOW WILL I BE RANKED AND WHEN WILL I FIND OUT MY RANKING?
For an Exchange in semester 3: the ranking is published in early February. It is based on your PGE1 1st semester GPA score before re-sits.
For an Exchange in semester 4: the ranking is published in June. It is based on your annual PGE1 GPA score before re-sits.
For an Exchange in semesters 5 + 6 (Double Degree): the ranking is published in February. If you do not take a gap year, the ranking is based on your annual PGE1 GPA score before re-sits (semesters 1 and 2 of PGE1). If you take a gap year, the ranking is based on your 4th semester GPA score before re-sits (2nd semester of PGE2).
As part of the Work-study pathway - RPI (2 years): the ranking is published in February. It is based on your 3rd semester GPA score before re-sits (1st semester of PGE2).
This GPA will also be used to validate the partner university prerequisites.
HOW DO I MAKE MY SELECTION?
Online, via an OFL accessible on your RISE account. You will be notified by email when the process starts.

HOW MANY UNIVERSITIES SHOULD I CHOOSE?
You can choose between 9 and 12 universities, in order of preference. Once your university selection period is closed, it is no longer possible to modify your preferences.
HOW DOES THE ALLOCATIONS PROCESS WORK?
Based on your ranking, we look at your 1st choice of University. If a place is available, then you are assigned to the corresponding university. If there are no more places left for your 1st choice of university, the 2nd choice will be considered, then the 3rd choice etc., up until your 12th choice, if necessary. You need to think carefully about any of your choices as it is possible for you to be allocated any of the universities named in your list of preferences.
If none of your choices are available, the allocation process is stopped. Then, you will be contacted by our team to make an additional choice among the available universities: you will have 24 hours to do so. In any case, you keep your place in the ranking.
Please note: if a student does not choose a partner university, Rennes SB will make an arbitrary decision and allocate them to one of the remaining host universities.
WHEN WILL I KNOW WHICH UNIVERSITY I AM ASSIGNED TO?
The results of the Partner University allocations are communicated within 3 days of the closure of the OFL.
