Choosing your entrance and mobility universities

When you apply for the programme, you will have to indicate your preference as regards your entrance and mobility universities.
Consider the following points when you are choosing your entrance and mobility universities:

  • What does each university offer as regards its academic programme?
  • Do you have any knowledge of the language spoken in the country of your chosen university and are you interested in learning this language?
  • Do you have any knowledge of the culture and history of the country of your chosen university?
  • Do you have any family contacts or friends in any of these cities?
  • Have you compared the cost of living in the different cities and thought about how you will be able to finance your stay in any of these cities?

Comments: The most important factor involved in choosing your universities is the academic programme and the opportunities open to you to acquire a further foreign language. For example, students who want to learn German can choose either Bamberg or Graz, but there isn’t much point in studying in either city if you are not interested in or willing to learn German. However, you should also consider where you would like to live, and having friends or family nearby can help you settle in faster.

A further consideration is finance. Tuition fees vary according to the university and you should check this before you apply to a particular entrance university. Further, the cost of living in the cities involved in the programme varies quite a lot, and you should think carefully about your budget. The partner universities don’t themselves offer scholarships to Joint Degree students, but it is worth investigating whether any scholarships are offered by the countries themselves to international students, or whether your country offers financial support to its own citizens.

Note that mobility scholarships awarded through the Erasmus programme are available for students who choose a European partner as their entrance university. Other mobility scholarships may be available and you should check with your chosen entrance university.
