• Privacy notice
• Consent to data transfer to third country
• Guidelines for Neptun application

Students must obtain all the relevant information on the partner university’s webpage about the offered courses on specific study level and language.
You can get more information about this call, the partner institutions’ study programmes and courses from your Faculty/Academic international coordinator.   

Scandinavian universities typically work with an early nomination deadline, so if you want to apply to this country, you should apply as soon as possible. Contact your Faculty/Academic international coordinator for exact nomination deadlines for each university. You can read more about the nomination in the "Nomination" menu item at the bottom of the page.

Submitted applications are evaluated by a professional board, stood up by the Institute/Department.
The evaluation criteria are published in the call.
The student might be required to participate at a personal interview after receiving the written evaluation.

General criteria of the evaluation (the list is not in a priority order, there might be other aspects as well according to differing Faculty regulations):

• Language proficiency at the study field,
• Academic achievement,
• Professional awareness,
• Academic excellence or other significant professional achievement,
• Participation in Student Union activities or others at related organizations,
• Participation in a Student Mentor/Buddy System, supporting students.

Those students who have never participated in the Erasmus+ Programme have priority during the evaluation process, however, we strongly encourage the re-application of former Erasmus + students too.

Based on the above points, the Institutes/Departments nominate students to the Erasmus Board (for study tours, internships and financial grants).

Those students, who were nominated by the host university but were not granted financial support by the Erasmus Board, might also travel to participate in the Erasmus programme, but they need to fully cover their costs. These students are named “zero grant students”. Thanks to this status, students are free from any payment at the host university, i.e. zero grant students do not need to pay tuition fee and any costs of registration, exams, laboratory and library.

Students who have applied for study abroad mobility are nominated to the partner institution by the departmental/faculty coordinators. The nomination deadlines vary from institution to institution, so you might be conditionally nominated by your departmental/faculty coordinator before you are officially informed of the outcome of your application. The host institution always confirms whether or not they can receive you for the semester and the programme that you have applied for, so you might be contacted by the host institution before the official notification of your application result. We would like to remind you that any nomination sent before the Students and Staff Mobility Committee’s decision on your Erasmus+ application is always conditional and will only become final once your Erasmus+ status has been granted.

Two applications are available to universities in Switzerland:
 

1. „Swiss-European Mobility Programme” (SEMP)

Since 2014, Switzerland does not participate in the Erasmus+ program, in its place the „Swiss-European Mobility Programme” (SEMP) was implemented by the Swiss government, which allows ELTE students to participate in a study abroad program at Swiss partner universities. ELTE's SEMP partner universities where you can apply to in this call are listed in section I.

You can apply to these partners in Neptun as detailed in section IV-V, but following the nomination (section IX) you receive your scholarship from the Swiss host institution, not ELTE. The average scholarship rate per semester is 2300 CHF (approx. 2337 EUR). The duration of the SEMP mobility is min. 91 days, max. 12 months and students can altogether can participate in a SEMP mobility (similarly to the regulation of the Erasmus+ program) up to 12 months per study cycle (e.g. 2 x 6 months mobility). Please note that you cannot apply for Erasmus+ additional support with SEMP mobility.

Awarded SEMP students prepare their mobility and scholarship documentation based on the instructions of the host institution.

Awarded students send the following documents to their faculty international coordinator for registering ther mobility in Neptun and for credit recognition:

• before the mobility: Learning Agreement (LA) before mobility, in which the student agrees with their sending international coordinator and the receiving institution on the study plan to be undertaken abroad.
• during the mobility:
  • Certificate of Arrival/Registration: (signed by the receiving faculty coordinator/supervisor), within 30 days after arrival.
  • Learrning Agreement (LA) during the mobility. The “During the Mobility” section of the LA must be handed in by everyone who has made changes to the courses listed in the “Before the Mobility” section of the LA by the deadline set in the general credit recognition procedure. Only deleted or added courses should be indicated in the document.
• closing the mobility:
  • Certificate of Attendance
  • Transcript of Records: there is no form for this document, it is issued by the host institution, contains all the courses completed and their credit value.

2. Partner universities in Switzerland with Erasmus+ scholarship

From 2022, the following Erasmus+ mobility opportunities are available to certain Swiss partners as well:

• Long-term study abroad mobility
• Short-term doctoral mobility

You can apply to these partners as detailed in the call for application of the Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility program. With that application you apply for SEMP and Erasmus+ scholarship at the same time. Submitting an SEMP application (via Neptun) is not necessary in the case of these partners!

Awarded students can receive SEMP and Erasmus+ scholarship at the same time. Awarded Erasmus+ students can apply for Erasmus+ additional support as well.

The intercultural preparation course prepares students for the cultural, intercultural challenges may occure during their mobility period with the help of professors of the Institute of Intercultural Psychology and Education. Read more about the course.

If your mobility fails due to the COVID-19 epidemiological situation or serious illness and costs associated with mobility (booking / insurance / flight ticket) have already been incurred an individual equity claim (force majeure) can be submitted to cover them.

If you have to interrupt the physical part of your mobility due to changes in the COVID-19 epidemiological situation or serious illness, you can also submit the individual equity claim (force majeure) to request to your proportional scholarship for the period spent physically abroad and reimburse your extra costs occured due to the interruption. Please note that the monthly scholarship is granted only for the period spent physically abroad.
