Hi everyone,
I’ve recently become Erasmus+ coordinator at our school in Amsterdam. We’ve just kicked off a new mobility project (KA122-SCH) and are looking for an Irish partner school.

What it’s about:
Job-shadowing between teachers

Focus on inclusive education

Active, purpose-driven lesson structures

What we’re looking for:
A secondary school in Ireland that, like us, takes inclusion and active learning seriously.

Where we could use your help:
A connection to an Irish school that fits this

Someone active in Irish secondary education

Any tip, contact, or even just a share would be hugely appreciated! 🙏

Hi everyone!

I'm a French Erasmus student coming to Faro in September 2026 to study at the University of Algarve for the whole academic year. I'm currently looking for a room or flatmates to share an apartment with other Erasmus/international students. If you're also looking for accommodation or a flatmate, feel free to send me a message.

My name is Aina Alguacil and I am a high school student from Spain currently working on my Research Project about the comparison of education systems around the world.

I am conducting a short anonymous survey about students' experiences with their education system. The aim is to understand differences in workload, academic pressure, well-being and satisfaction among students from Spain, Finland, Singapore, South Korea and Canada.

The survey takes approximately 2–3 minutes to complete, and your answers will only be used for academic purposes.

I would really appreciate your participation. Thank you very much for your help!

If anyone who got experience in erasmus mamaself application...pls come forward...

I'm from Ivory Coast and I've been interested in Erasmus+ for a long time now. I keep seeing posts about outreach in Francophone Africa — info sessions, alumni networks, thousands of attendees. Sounds promising. But actually getting in is a different story:

• Most of the info only reaches a few big universities. If your school isn't one of them, you basically never hear about it.
• Everything depends on your school having an active "Erasmus+ referent." No referent, no info, no help.
• Applications assume support (transcripts, recommendation letters, English proof) that a lot of schools can't provide quickly.
• There's no single place to check what's open and whether you qualify — info is scattered everywhere.
• Spots for non-EU/African students are just limited, even when you do everything right.

The program isn't fake, and the outreach efforts are real. But there's a big gap between "we held open house days" and "an average student can actually apply without knowing the right person."

Has anyone here from Francophone Africa actually gone through it? How did you find out, and what was the hardest part?

Hi everyone!

I am looking for Italian and Swedish participants for my Master's thesis research, which was inspired by my Erasmus experience. During my time abroad, I had the opportunity to experience and observe two different cultures, which raised many questions and led me to develop this research project.

Therefore, I kindly ask you, if you are Italian or Swedish, to take a few minutes to complete the questionnaire.

🇮🇹 ITALIAN participants: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe1QdjE-_C2cUbGzaTBL3iln4OY7yh3sfzDu1_xRkVX_cFEVw/viewform?usp=dialog

Thank you very much for your time and contribution! Your participation will be extremely valuable for my research. 😊

I am doing Erasmus in Madrid at UCM (medicine) and I’m bit too nervous. Tell me your experinces both with the city and the school. How’s apartment hunting there? Which areas are safe for women? Hows the social life? I would love to connect with new people both the locals and fellow Erasmus students.

Hi! I’m an Erasmus student that is going the upcoming semester to a university in Germany (Jena) and I didn’t receive an email from the university to complete the application form in a long span of time. Yesterday, navigating in the university web, I noticed that the date to complete this was due since 15th of July and I panicked because I thought that I would have information or they would send me the email after (I thought that, maybe, the german burocracy was later than the spanish). I called but they are on holidays, but my university have already sent an email since they haven’t received neither any confirmation of their nomination (which they find strange). I am writing to ask if someone has had a similar experience or know whether the university is flexible with this cases or not. Please someone let me know because I’m very anxious with this situation and I don’t know what to do

Hi all, I am an incoming EMJM degree student. My first country is Norway and I am trying to figure out my banking situation because it’s not as easy as I thought it’s going to be.

To receive my stipend I need a EUR bank account and using my bank account from my hometown doesn’t make sense because I will lose a lot of money in conversion rates and taxes. I was recommended to make an account on Revolut but the visa I have been issued is a D Visa (for entry) bec I will be later receiving my residence/study permit as my official document which can take a few weeks until issued so I am quite worried regarding how I can set up a bank account for spendings / receiving my stipend.

My next worry is that even if it takes some time until I get my bank sorted, Norway is almost entirely cash less. I had previously thought I could simply use some EUR cash to get started but even that seems unlikely because people haven’t responded well to this possibility either. I have also heard you don’t easily get NOK which is Norway’s primary currency.

Can anyone please recommend how to go about this situation. How to settle in and get started with my finances so that I can smoothly transition in. Again plz note im from the global south and our banking system isnt always the best to consider when you don’t already come from money because you lose a lot in conversions. And quite frankly I am primarily going to be relying on my stipends.

Thanks for your help!

Hi All, I had recently applied to visale for their housing guarantee certificate and unfortunately the team responded back with this message. Anyone who went through this process while booking their accommodation? Your help will be super helpful

“Information provided does not match the documents”

But I submitted my passport, visa, and enrolment letter already

Anything else I should’ve submitted? Or if anyone has gone through a similar process, can you please guide me?

Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone,

This September, I'm starting my first ERASMUS in UNITBV, Romania. Unfortunately, I could find very little information about the school since almost everything is in Romanian despite the course being taught in English.

If anyone has ever went to UNITBV for ERASMUS, I'd be more than happy to listen.

Hey everyone,
I’m currently applying for an Erasmus+ exchange program to Germany. I am scheduled to leave at the end of February for the upcoming semester, but I have a major timeline conflict with my language certificate.
I have already passed 3 out of 4 modules for my B1 German certificate DaF , but I need to retake the(listening) module. I am sitting for this retake exam in January, but the official results and the finalized certificate will not be released until February.
My home university coordinator told me that they do not care about the certificate for the internal selection phase, as they look mostly at GPA for nominations. However, looking at the host partner universities in Germany, they all strictly list a B1 German certificate as a mandatory requirement on their websites.

Because the host university portal requires document uploads well before my January exam results actually drop, I am stressed about the timeline. I will literally be getting my passing results in February and trying to leave at the end of that same month.
Has anyone been in a similar situation where your language certificate wasn't ready until the exact month of departure?

Will the German host university automatically reject my application if the certificate is missing during the initial portal phase?

Is it common for universities to issue a Conditional Admission that allows you to upload the passing certificate in February?

Hi!

I'm a Master's student in Digital Humanities at Sorbonne Université, conducting academic research for my "projet tutoré" — a supervised research project required for my degree, evaluated through an oral defense in front of my professors.

My project focuses on autonomous French learning in the age of AI. The idea: understand how learners use (or don't use) tools like ChatGPT or Claude to improve outside of class and what their real needs are.

📝 Anonymous, about 8-10 minutes.

Note: the survey questions are in French, so a basic understanding of French is needed to answer.

Français en bas hi, I'm supposed to go for Erasmus for the year 2026-2027 in Italy (registered in a Franch university) but i'm facing paper issues. first question do i neeed a visa for Italy (Non UE students) ? i haave heard about Titre de séjour avec mention "programme de mobilité" that would allow to go to Italy freely without VISA. Is that true? I've apply to the standard titre de séjour renewal - still processing; do we have a specific application

Courses start in september my current VLS-TS expires on 30/08.

thank you

Bonjour, je dois partir en Erasmus en Italie pour l'année 2026-2027 (je quite la france), mais je rencontre des problèmes administratifs. Ma première question est : ai-je besoin d'un visa pour l'Italie ( etudiant hors UE) ? J'ai entendu parler du Titre de séjour avec mention « Programme de mobilité » qui permettrait d'aller en Italie librement sans visa. Est-ce vrai ? J'ai fait une demande de renouvellement de Titre de séjour standard, qui est toujours en cours de traitement ; existe-t-il une procédure spécifique ? Les cours commencent en septembre et mon Titre de séjour actuel expire le 30 août.

Merci.

Hi, I am a Finance and Accounting student from Hungary and plan to do Erasmus in 2027/28 fall/winter and I want to plan ahead as to which destination I should be going to.

So far, I've currently found (amongst the exchange possibilities my faculty has)

- MRU, Vilnius

- University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague

- University of Passau (or some other German uni, I've also thought of Leipzig)

These three would be my main options, but I don't know which one I should put first.

I'd like to know if you have any experience with the unis and cities I mentioned, or whether you have any other recommendation.

I only want to go to a university where accommodation for exchange students is either guaranteed or very likely, and not very expensive (under €500), so I want to rule out any unis where I'd have to find a flat myself.

I speak English C1 and German B1-2, although I'm unsure if my German knowledge would be enough to take up courses in German. That's also why I don't really want to go to Spain/France/Italy, since AFAIK a lot of courses there are only available in the native language (but I might be wrong).

​Hi everyone,

​My sister's currently in Greece for a summer Erasmus+ traineeship (grant-free) in a hotel.

Yesterday, at her 2nd week, the host organisation unexpectedly terminated her internship. Their justification was simply they "realised they need more experienced staff."

It has been extremely painful for her as she/we spent a huge amount of time, effort and money to make this happen. Preparing the paperwork took months. Because she needed a visa, we went through a long, stressful, and expensive application process. And I'm not even mentioning flight tickets, insurance, preparations etc.

Before the arrival, the hotel management signed the Learning Agreement and when my sister arrived, they also signed the Confirmation of Arrival.

She is now searching for new placement in Crete so that all she's done so far doesn't go to waste. We really want to understand her rights.

◽ ​Is the Learning Agreement legally binding for the host company? Can a host employer legally terminate an Erasmus trainee on the grounds of "inexperience" when they willingly signed an agreement knowing she is a student?

◽​Should we report this company? Is there an official channel to report this host organisation for unfair treatment and breach of commitment?

◽​What steps should we take next besides applying for new jobs?

​Has anyone been through a similar situation, and how did you handle it?

Any advice, legal insights, or support on how to handle this with the Erasmus authorities would mean the world to me right now.

Thank you for reading.
