Hello guys what are the best opportunities for an architecture student via Erasmus?

I have a question related to when will reciepents of the EMJMD scholarship get their first stipend? How much money is recommended to bring with yourself?

Hi, I just received admission results for Erasmus Mundus 2025, however I don't fully understand what does it mean and why they proposed me self-financing if I am ranked from 40 to 100, while program has 5 self-funding places?:

"Dear applicant,

Thank you very much for applying to the NeuroData program.

We concluded all interviews and rankings. Of the 100 candidates that interviewed, you are ranked in the range of 40 to 100, which is far below the 15 scholarships we can award. I am happy to inform you that your grades and interview scores have been high, and you are eligible to enroll in the NeuroData program as a self-paying student.

Additionally, your ranking qualifies you for an alternative opportunity to apply for the MSc in Brain Sciences, the MSc in Brain Sciences and Data Science track, or the PhD program at the Gonda Brain Research Center. These programs offer full tuition exemption and include a local program scholarship, providing an excellent opportunity to advance your research in brain sciences.

Please let us know if you want to join the NeuroData program as a self-paying student or pursue one of these programs, and we will forward your submission to the admissions committee.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Hello, For those who were on Erasmus in Austria (especially University of Vienna) and had courses in German, how understandable/difficult were they? Is B2 level enough?

Hello everyone!

I've recently been admitted to the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master in Managing Art & Cultural Heritage in Global Markets (MAGMa). Unfortunately, I didn’t receive the scholarship, which means I’ll need to take out a student loan to cover tuition and living expenses while studying abroad. As thrilled as I am to have been selected for such a competitive program, I’m also a bit anxious. I'm wondering how much this degree can actually improve my chances in the job market, especially since I'll have student debt to pay off after graduation.

Does anyone here have experience with the Erasmus Mundus program in general, or MAGMa specifically? I'd really appreciate any insight into how it impacted your career or job prospects afterward. Thanks in advance!

Have you guys received anything? Interview sessions are starting tomorrow

Hi, received my scholarship offer from MAGMa and looking forward to connect with other scholars. Please let me know if there's a WhatsApp or any other social media group for MAGMa intake of September 2025.

I’ve gotten a few comments and suggestions about reapplying next year in hopes of getting the fully funded and I’ve heard a few stories where it actually works out for people the following year but i was curious to see if it actually DIDNT work out for anyone?

I’ve been looking into Erasmus and similar study abroad programs, and I can’t shake the feeling that they’re mostly designed for students who already have a solid financial and emotional safety net.

If you’re neurodivergent, low-income, or dealing with mental health challenges, the whole experience seems way riskier. The grants often don’t cover the actual cost of living, especially in big cities. There’s little to no real emotional or structural support unless you build it all yourself. And if something goes wrong — you struggle academically, can’t adapt socially, or your mental health crashes — you’re the one who ends up paying for it, sometimes literally.

The whole thing feels like a high-stakes gamble: either you “live the best year of your life”… or you crash and burn, possibly fail courses, lose your footing, and no one’s really there to catch you.

Meanwhile, those with savings, strong support systems, and flexible families get to fully enjoy the ride and come back glowing.

Not saying Erasmus is bad, but maybe we should stop pretending it's equally accessible or safe for everyone, and the people who might most benefit from the "free money" might just be using it to add more trips, party and cv to their silver-plattered lives.

Hello Erasmus Friends!

Since my university time, I have always been interested in the Erasmus projects. It gave me a lot of experience throughout the years to learn, explore and meet people. Now, having experience in more than 20 such projects and volunteering for an NGO working with the Erasmus project, how can you actually be a facilitator? Is there a job offer centre for this, or a website where you can find the facilitation offers for a specific project?

I am from Spain. Next year I'm going to Bologna, Italy for both semesters (from September to June more or less). I have been looking for both an apartment and a single room and even residences, and I can't find anything. I'm looking for something relatively cheap (€500-€600 a month or so), but at this point I'm desperate (enough to ask on reddit haha) and I'll take a little whatever. Would anyone who has gone on Erasmus to Bologna recommend a way to find accommodation? Maybe it's that it's still too early and in May/June apartments are released and more come out?

Hi, I got accepted at the Erasmus programme to Politechnika Bialostocka, Poland. Do you have any advice on the university accomodation, places I should visit in Bialystock or anything that would be nice to know before arriving? All advices are welcome, thank you!

I'm applying for the UCM right now but I the only language justification that I hold is the one that it's provided for free from the EU Erasmus online. Do you know maybe anyone that was manages to do a semester there without the official Language Certification?

I know this is not the best place to ask this, but this is where I can find European uni. students :)

Hey there. I am a final year linguistics BA student from Istanbul, Turkey. I have applied for a MA program at UAntwerp, called "Master of Linguistics and Literature: English". I have received a "positive recommendation" from them, meaning that I only need to do authenticity verification for my submitted documents. However, they told me that this positive recommendation comes with a binding condition:

"You are obliged to first follow a preparatory programme of 21 credits during the academic year 2025-2026. You are allowed to combine this preparatory programme with up to 39 credits from your Master's programme. The remaining credits from your Master's programme must be taken up through re-enrolment in the Master's programme in the academic year 2026-2027."

The "preparatory programme" they've proposed me is 6 BA-level literature courses. So basically they tell me that I have to take these 6 BA literature courses if I want to do a linguistics master's. I am aware that the title of the program says "Linguistics and Literature", but according to their website, I am able to choose only one literature course and fill the rest of my MA program with linguistics courses of my desire. Yet now I am obliged to a literature preparatory program.

A bit personal background: Turkey is becoming less and less livable in every single aspect of life, and I want to establish a life in Europe through higher education. This MA program is the one that attracts me the most because of its sociolinguistic focus, which is hard to find anywhere else. I also have financial restrictions and I will have to choose whichever institution that gives me a scholarship. With my strong application, I believe there's a possibility that I can get a full tuition waiver and a 10k scholarship from UAntwerp. Therefore, so far, this seems my only option because I don't have any other applications and my possible-future-applications in Germany will need a blocked bank account with 10k Euros in it, which I can't afford.

So, what do you think? Should I go for this? What are the risks? It seems that I'll have to work harder for this MA, and I'll have to take 6 literature courses that I really don't want to take. But if I have to, what's the matter, I can take and pass them, I know. Also, as I won't be able to finish it in 1 year, I'll need to take the remaining credits from the MA program through re-enrolment, in the academic year 2026-27. Will I have to pay tuition? Will I be able to stay there? For the first academic year (2025-26), will I be able to take all those courses they force me to take? Will they be available? Won't there be conflicts on my weekly schedule? I don't know. I have sent them an email 2 weeks ago, asking all these questions, but I have not received an answer yet.

I need your opinions. Thank you.

I was recently admitted to the program as a self-funded student, and at first, I was very excited about it. I chose Granada for the first year and Rennes for the second. I like the program and understand that it’s highly competitive, but now I’m questioning whether it’s worth the investment and whether I’ll have the opportunity to stay in Europe after graduation. My family would need to make significant financial sacrifices to cover the costs, which makes me feel a strong sense of responsibility. I would appreciate hearing opinions before making a final decision.

i just got nominated for my erasmus+ and luckily i will go to universidade de comibra, but I can't find any post from anyone who took erasmus there. I just want honest opinion form someone who already was there for erasmus, experience in general.

Hey everyone,

I’m a non-EU student pursuing a Master’s in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, and I’m currently looking for an Erasmus+ internship in IT networking. Since Erasmus+ helps with the visa process, the main issue for non-EU candidates like me is the work permit.

The problem is, I only have 28 days left to find an internship, so I really need to focus on just one or two countries where I have the best chance of getting accepted. Since this is a graduation internship, I’d love to gain experience in a country where there’s a chance to secure a job afterward (though I know the job market is tough right now).

Does anyone have insights on which European countries are more likely to accept non-EU Erasmus+ interns, especially in tech fields? Any advice or experiences would be super helpful!

Just to add more context — I speak four languages fluently: Arabic, French, English, and Turkish. I’ve already done an Erasmus+ study exchange in Poland, so this is different.This time it would be for a graduation internship, and I’d be really happy if it could lead to a longer-term opportunity

Hello, I'd like to go to Italy in the summer semester of 2025/2026 during my master's. I know a lot about Italy and I like to think my Italian is alright (girlfriend from there). The university doesn't have to be very good - to be fair I hope there's not much studying (English philology with German). Anyone have experience with German there?

Okay, the cities I can choose are:

- Verona

- Turin

- Catania

- Lecce

- Salerno

Verona has been the favourite here for a long time, I've been there once too. But now I've read it's boring? Turin I've only recently started thinking I could set at first place. It is a bit colder and far from any lakes and the sea. Catania... I don't know much about. Lecce and Salerno are also there but, to me, they're a bit too small. However, maybe I could be proven wrong by what they have to offer.

So, if anyone has any input, please help me here. I could also use some overall info on Italian universities. Thank you :)

This is more of a vent.. It's been incredibly rough taking the news as a rejection from the scholarship.

I feel like I've built a whole world in my head and now it's completely shattered. It's tough to accept especially when you feel like you've done your best (3.9/4.0 GPA, relevant experience, strong letters, rewriting your SOP many times...etc)

Has anyone experience about the apartment from Habyt in Lisbon Alfalma. I booked it a couple of days ago and now I'm really uncertain because of all the bad reviews. Really appreciate your help!

Hi everyone! The results for the CoMEM+ were expected to be released before April 3. However, my application status on the portal still shows "Under Consideration" and I haven’t received any email or update so far. Has anyone heard back from the programme yet?
