3. (Erasmus) How do I apply for an Erasmus mobility scholarship?

Answer
The Call for applications for Erasmus+ mobility grants is normally published between January and February each year. Applicants must submit their application by the relevant deadline together with the required documentation. The lists of the eligible and successful applicants (graduatorie) are drawn up based on merit and possibly on additional criteria depending on each degree programme, as determined by the relevant Selection Committee.

6. (Erasmus) How can I find accommodation in a city I don't know?

Answer
Many universities provide accommodation options specifically for Erasmus students in student residences or on campus. On the website of the relevant Institution you should find the necessary documentation to submit, by a specific deadline, to apply for accommodation. Such a service may not be available in other Institutions, which means it is up to you to find your own accommodation: if that's the case, it may be worth getting in touch with former Erasmus students to get some tips and advice.
