STEP I – REGISTRATION

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?

1. REGISTER until 20 December 2023 – send the Registration Card to karolina.jarosz@amuz.krakow.pl (details in the tab APPLY NOW)

2. Wait for the e-mail confirming your registration.

Remember that the Registration Card is an evidence of applying for the mobility (if you’re hesitating, it’s better to apply and resign, than to fill out and send the Card too late!). You don’t need to have the HEIs chosen at this stage.

HURRAY! THAT’S ALL! You’ve completed the first stage of the procedure.

 

STEP II – CHECK THE POSSIBILITIES AND PREPARE TO THE QUALIFYING INTERVIEW

  1. Look for information about the Higher Education Institution (HEI) = your Erasmus+ mobility destination and about courses available for Erasmus students – you will need it in January, on your qualifying interview
  2. Check UE websites http://erasmusplus.org.pl/ and https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/erasmus-plus/about_en.
  3. Check academic website https://www.amuz.krakow.pl/en/erasmus/ containing documents, list of partner institutions and other useful information.
  4. Choose THREE foreign HEIs you wish to apply to.
  5. Check websites of foreign Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Each institution is required to publish available courses, academic calendar and other useful information. If you wish to apply to HEI that is not on the list, tell it to your IRC on the qualifying interview.

STEP III – QUALIFYING INTERVIEW

  1. Read the e-mail informing about the date of the obligatory qualifiying interview in a foreign language (detalis will be sent later).

    Recruitment conditions available here: https://www.amuz.krakow.pl/erasmus/dokumenty/.
  4. Positive result of the recruitment and geting the acceptance to go to the mobility do not guaranee that you will receive funding. The funding conditions are sent to the applicants later (at this stage Erasmus+ beneficiary earns the right to study abroad with the so-called “0” scholarship = without Erasmus+ funding).

 

STEP IV – ORGANIZATION MEETING (only for students qualified for the mobility)

  1. After a positive result of the interview, further instructions will be forwarded to you by the IRC.

    – sending links with your work, showing your abilities,
    – filling out the LEARNING AGREEMENT and the internal cooperation about the studies curriculum
    – preparing additional documents required by the receiving institution

You will learn the details during the meeting!

Students receiving social scholarship at the time of departure are entitled to receive additional grant. Details available in the Erasmus+ office.
