Scholarship and costs

Erasmus+ Exchange Studies

Scholarship and costs 2019/2020 Academic Year

 Erasmus+ programme additional support

Students who have qualified for the need-based study allowance (paid by the Estonian state) or special need-based allowance (paid by the university) for the semester before exchange studies, or for the semester of exchange studies, are entitled to additional scholarship of 200 € /month, given they present a proof and application to EUAS Erasmus+ Coordinator. For the need-based allowance, the proof is to be taken by the student him-/herself from the Estonian state portal (name of the file you have to find is written in Estonian "OTSUS"). For the special need-based allowance, the proof about whether the student has been assigned the named allowance is checked by the Erasmus+ Coordinator.

NB! In case the student wants to apply for the Erasmus+ additional support and has qualified for either one of the allowances, there are two possible times to present the proof and application: (1) if allowance was assigned for the semester before exchange studies, then the proof and application have to be presented to EUAS Erasmus+ Coordinator before signing the Erasmus+ Scholarship Agreement; (2) if allowance was assigned for the semester of exchange studies, then the proof and application have to be presented during 30 days starting from the day of being awarded the allowance. 

Estonian Government scholarship

Estonian Government scholarship will be paid as follows: 

• 400 € - a one-time payment for the students who are going to study at the higher living cost countries.
• 200 € - a one-time payment for the students who are going to study at the medium living cost countries.
• 150 € - a one-time payment for students who are going to study at the lower living cost countries. 

Principles regulating paying out the scholarship

• The exchange studies' period (mobility period) is calculated on a per day basis. The beginning and end date of the mobility are certified in the Scholarship Agreement. The actual length of the mobility period shall be certified in the confirmation letter issued by the host university at the end of exchange studies.
• The student will receive 70% of the total EC scholarship before the start of the mobility, and the remaining 30% when he/she has returned to home university, has presented all the end of the mobility documents, and if his/her mobility period has not shortened. The Estonian Government scholarship is paid out fully before the start of the exchange studies. 
• In case the dates on the confirmation letter certify the shortened mobility period, then at the end of the exchange studies the student shall receive the smaller amount from the remaining 30% of the European Commission scholarship (depending on how many days earlier the student returned), or if student's mobility shortened significantly, the student is asked to pay back for the overpaid days.
