You can receive the Erasmus+ grant more than once if
you study abroad through Erasmus+ multiple times during your studies. Maximum
12 months during your bachelor and 12 months during your Master.
If you receive other types of EU funding for your stay abroad (e.g. Erasmus
Mundus) you will not be eligible for the Erasmus+ grant.
Rights and
obligations
As an Erasmus+ student, you
are covered by the Erasmus+ Student Charter. The Charter describes your
rights as an Erasmus+ student as well as the requirements you must live up to.
Furthermore, you must live up to DTU rules regarding exchange and documentation
linked to the Erasmus+ grant. Make sure to upload the required
documentation to your grant application in Beyond Borders before and after your
stay, within the set deadlines.
You are obliged to let us know of any changes to your stay abroad (changes to
start and end dates, your choice of courses, etc.). If you do not live up to
the obligations, including the required documentation, you risk having to pay
back all or parts of your grant.
Physical
presence in the host country
In order to receive the Erasmus+ grant, the minimum
duration of the study period abroad must be 2 months or an academic term.
Please note, however, that the grant can only be awarded if the student is
physically present in the host country. You are not eligible for the grant
if you choose to follow online teaching at the host university from Denmark (or
any country but the host country).
You may be asked to document your physical stay upon
completion of the semester. So make sure you save your travel itinerary, rental
agreement etc.
Longer interruptions of the physical stay (e.g. if you go back to your home
country during the exam period) will be registered as “interruption days” and
will not count as part of the funded stay. Official holidays / semester breaks
like e.g. the Christmas holidays will not be deducted if you return physically
for the study or exam period after the break.
