Specific Application Requirements for Erasmus+

Erasmus+ is a program of the European Union for funding stays abroad at higher education institutions. The specific application requirements (additional to gereral application requirements) are:
you are accepted to study for one or two semesters at a partner university
* the duration of your stay abroad is between
2 and 12 months* (per study cycle)

In every cycle (Bachelor, Master, Doctorate) Erasmus mobilities up to 12 months will be possible independent of type (SMS, SMP) and number of mobilities (e.g. 1 mobility for studies for 5 months and 2 mobilities for traineeship for 2 and 5 months = max.12 months).

Erasmus+ Student Charter

To promote Erasmus+ students’ awareness of their rights and obligations, each Erasmus student will receive an Erasmus+ Student Charter from their home university before leaving for the study period abroad. The Charter is a short information leaflet that tells Erasmus+ students what they are entitled to and also what they are expected to do during their secondment.

The Erasmus+ Student Charter outlines the basic entitlements of the Erasmus+ students, such as free tuition and full recognition of studies abroad. The Charter also specifies the main obligations of the Erasmus+ students, providing them with a concise idea of their duties in respect to both their home and host universities. It will be issued to all Erasmus+ students by their home universities before they leave for their study period abroad.

Special situation Switzerland

The deadlines mentioned above as well as the general requirements also apply to a semester abroad in Switzerland. The biggest difference, however, is that funding is provided by Switzerland. For more information please get in contact with the Swiss partner institution.
