Erasmus+ supports disadvantaged students
Are you in a difficult economic situation or do you have health limitations that do not allow you to go abroad without incurring extra expenses or travelling back to the Czech Republic for medical care?
The application must be submitted to the Department of International Relations before the mobility starts (form to be prepared by us).
It also applies to internships (the student will receive both increases).
Support for students with limited opportunities
The student can apply for reimbursement of costs related to a disability. This is evidenced by a medical report or a document that proves the need in question. This includes, for example, the services of an assistant, expenses for transport and purchase of special aids, necessary trips to the doctor back to the Czech Republic, etc. We always deal with cases on an individual basis. The national agency approves expenses above EUR 3000.
It is possible to apply for reimbursement of up to 100% of the costs.
Students with specific dietary requirements (celiac disease, diabetes, lactose intolerance - all proven by a medical report)
Possibility to apply for an increase of EUR 250/month.
Support for students with economic barriers
