Erasmus Grant

Funding from the ERASMUS+ Program

The Erasmus grant is supplementary in nature and aims to cover the additional costs of living and accommodation abroad. It is funded by the EU. While on an Erasmus scholarship, students retain the right to receive all other awarded scholarships, such as academic or ministerial scholarships.

The amount of the monthly grant depends on the destination country and is determined by the European Commission in the program guide.

The total Erasmus grant for mobility is related to the duration of the semester and examination period at the foreign university. For this reason, students going to the same country may receive different grants.

The payment will be made on the condition that you sign the financial agreement, where the study period at the foreign university is indicated, before the mobility.

According to the principle adopted at the University of Wrocław funds are allocated for a maximum period of 5 months (by one semester mobilities) and for a maximum of 10 months (by two semester mobilities), and according to the general principles the mobility cannot be shorter than 2 months.

The grant provided by the Erasmus + program will be paid in two instalments as compensation:

1st instalment: 80% before departure

2nd instalment: 20% after settlement of the mobility

To determine the correct co-financing amount, we consider the duration of the semester and the examination session at the foreign university, which must be confirmed by the host university. 

Rates for Short-term mobility

Erasmus+ program support for living costs in the amount of EUR 79 / day for the period from 1 to 14 days of activity, and EUR 56 / day between the 15th and 30th day of activity.

Individuals who have fewer opportunities, including those with disabilities or who receive social subsidies, can obtain extra assistance. This includes EUR 100 for trips lasting up to 14 days, and EUR 150 for trips lasting 15 to 30 days.
