QUICK STEPS to apply for an Erasmus+ Scholarship

 

Step #1

2.      Select the EMJM course that you are interested in and access its website to obtain specific details such as the course description, prerequisites, the application process, forms, and deadlines. The applicant can select and apply for up to three EMJM courses.

 

3.      The application period is usually opened in September or October every year, for courses starting in September in the following academic year. Application procedures and deadlines vary between courses.
