Eligibility Requirements

Students with German citizenship or citizenship of a country participating in the program who are enrolled for their entire study abroad program at a university participating in KOOR - Erasmus Services BW participating in the program.

Students with non-European citizenship must be enrolled for your entire course of study at one of these universities. Exchange students are therefore excluded. If you are a non-European national, please find out in good time whether you need a visa in the host country. Please contact the respective consulate or embassy of your destination country for further information.

Students who do not have their main residence in Germany are not allowed to complete the semester(s) abroad in their main country of residence.

Studying abroad can include an internship phase, provided the internship takes place under the supervision of the host university. A combined stay can be organised in different ways depending on the context, i.e. the activities can take place consecutively or simultaneously. Internships lasting less than 60 days are possible under the following conditions:

• submission of a §Studies combined with Traineeship§ application (Learning Agreement for Studies)
• internship must be anchored as a course with ECTS in the Learning Agreement for Studies.
• no salary limit
• full-time internship is not required

Internships lasting 2 months or more must be funded with a separate Erasmus+ internship application, even if they are supervised by the host university. Please note the funding criteria for the Erasmus+ traineeships.

The simultaneous receipt of an Erasmus internship grant and Erasmus study grant is not possible.

You can apply continuously, however, you must submit your application documents one week before the beginning of the study exchange the latest.

Please plan a lead time lasting several weeks because you have to obtain signatures from the guest and home school.

Repetitive funding is possible if this does not exceed a duration of 12 months (including Erasmus internship) per study phase (Bachelor/Master/PhD). For single-cycle programs (Diplom/Magister/State Exam), the limit is 24 months. The months already funded in the Lifelong Learning Program are counted towards the quota in this case.

There must be no double funding by the EU, i.e. you may not simultaneously claim another EU scholarship in addition to the Erasmus scholarship.
The simultaneous receipt of an Erasmus scholarship and another DAAD scholarship (e.g. the Bachelor Plus scholarship) is excluded on the part of the DAAD. Should you receive a DAAD scholarship, please consult with the respective contact person.
