  • timing: teaching activity only during semesters
  • research activities, conference visit or partner meetings, etc. cannot be the only aim of a teacher mobility

II. Scholarship rates

As the CEEPUS scholarship is awarded and paid by the host country, the amount is different in every country. The same scholarship amounts apply to both Network and Freemover mobilities. You can view the current scholarship rates for the CEEPUS countries here. (Please click on the respective flag on the website to view the current rates per country.)

If a grant holder does not stay in the host country for the full length of the period specified in his/her award, he/she may be required to pay back the amount of the scholarship. Months cannot be split.

First, you will receive an automatic email from www.ceepus.info about the application being awarded (Status: Awarded by host NCO) or rejected (Status: Rejected by host NCO), then your Letter of Award will be issued and sent to you with an information package from the host National CEEPUS Office.

You can expect the result for your application usually 30-45 days after the submission deadline.

If your application has been awarded, you have to send feedback to the host National CEEPUS Office that you still intend to have your mobility by accepting it in the online system.
