Decision-making procedures:
Applications are assessed and applicants are ranked in priority order by the Erasmus Committees of the faculties and the placement coordinators.

Applicants will be informed about the results by the Erasmus Office.

If the number of applicants is low, the deadline will be extended and will be continuous until withdrawal or the availability of the financial sources. Applications will be evaluated in the order of submission. Applicants will be informed about the decision by the Erasmus Office.

“Green Erasmus”: If the student chooses the green travel form, he/she is entitled to a one-time travel allowance of € 50 and can receive a subsistence allowance for up to 4 additional travel days.
• Green travel is any form of travel that is not air travel.
• Green travel allowance can be awarded for travel between countries.
• Green travel support is also available if green travel is provided in one direction only.
• The travel form can be proved by the travelers with travel documents or, failing that (eg when traveling by car) with the attached criminal declaration.
• Proof of travel (travel tickets) must be kept by the student and handed over to the sending institution upon request.
Financing will be awarded for the period indicated in the letter of acceptance (or for a shorter period up to the 12-month limit if the student has already used the majority of months previously for studies/placements). The extension of the placement is possible depending on the actual budget and the 12-month rule. The Erasmus grant does not cover all expenses, students should be prepared for partial self-financing or looking for other sources.
Zero-grant status: if the number of applicants exceeds the limits of the available financial sources, applicants will be ranked in waiting lists, or they can be awarded Erasmus status without grant. In such cases, they will be self-financing Erasmus students.
Awarded Erasmus+ grant:
The grant will be awarded for full months, but will be recalculated when the participant makes a Grant Agreement with the university.
SPECIAL TYPE OF TRAINEESHIP: RECENT GRADUATE (after graduation)
International students must apply and be awarded with the grant when they still have active student status. After the termination of the student status, applications are not accepted. All administrative arrangements (learning agreement for traineeships, grant contract, entry visa to host country, health, accident and liability insurance policies valid in the host country) must be made until the validity date of the residence permit in Hungary.
Mode of working: due to and depending on the pandemic, host companies will offer different types of work: onsite/physical exclusively, onsite/physical combined with online, or exclusively online. Blended mobility means the combination of working in physical presence and online. The concrete mode of working must be declared in the Letter of Acceptance, however it is advised to clarify the details again before the start of the traineeship.
Scholarship is granted only for the physical part of the mobility.
Consequences of giving false information:
Submitting false data or documents in the application may lead to serious sanctions, even disqualification from the application round.
RECOMMENDATIONS BEFORE APPLYING:
Both the application for the Erasmus grant and the arrangements with the host company require serious and thorough preparation. Students will face quite a big amount of administrative procedures. Please read and study all available information at the Erasmus homepage and keep permanent contact with the host company. The lack of information will make your preparation very hard.
INFORMATION FOR SELECTED STUDENTS:
Selected students will have the following obligations before starting placements abroad:
