What does Erasmus+ offer you?

Once you’re accepted for the Erasmus+ scholarship for your stay at Heidelberg University, the program will cover the tuition fees at your guest institution. The scholarship also entails partial coverage of your expenses for travel, language preparation, and living costs.

As the program cannot cover all of your expenses abroad, please make sure to find out about the possibility of financing your stay before applying.
