Study in Europe with the assistance of ERASMUS!

ERASMUS is the European Commission's exchange program that enables students in 33 European countries to study or intern for part of their degree in another country. ERASMUS is a great opportunity to study in another European country between 2 and 12 months, and have it count towards your degree.

51猎奇 Frankfurt has ERASMUS exchange agreements with over 270 universities across Europe. The ERASMUS program is open to degree searching undergraduate and postgraduate students of 51猎奇. If you are interested in studying somewhere else in Europe you will first need to check which institutions your department has cooperations with. ERASMUS is open to the majority of disciplines, but opportunities will depend on the agreements your department has made and what degree program you are on.

The online application is possible from December 20 on and the official application deadline for outgoing students from 51猎奇 is Februar 1st and concerns study abroad periods in the following academic year (winter semester AND also summer semester).

Please read up on the mobility opportunities in "your" department or institute in the tabs below and consult your departmental coordinator for further advice, e.g. language requirements and if proof of language proficiency is due with the online application or later, additional documents, or if you have to hand in the ERASMUS application as an email attachment with the coordinator.

After gathering all necessary information, you start the application process by completing an online registration, thereby creating your applicant's account, into which you upload your complete ERASMUS application in one pdf-file. You will be guided along step by step by explanatory texts within your account.

The online application will be connected to your official Goethe HRZ account, so your Goethe login and password will fit your ERASMUS applicant's account. In order to complete the paperfree ERASMUS online application please use this link: 
ERASMUS-Online Application  
Shortly before the deadline server problems and delays may occur due to many last minute applications. So do not wait until the last minute.

Applications after the deadline: 
If you miss the original application deadline you may apply for leftover spots at partner institutions that could not be filled with suitable candidates in the regular selection process. Please consult with the respective departmental coordinator and ask for the remaining mobility possibilities. If they accept late applications, please complete the online application and send us an email outgoing@uni-frankfurt.de  to let us know. Please also send your application file to the coordinator as an email attachment.

Selection process: 
After the application deadline the departmental coordinator will receive the uploaded application files of all applicants and wil conduct the selection of ERASMUS participants. Your academic performance, motivation, study plan and language skills will be considered. Also other criteria may be established, such as only accepting applications of students majoring in the department/institute, thereby either excluding minor students or putting them in 2nd priority. The same may be applied in case of applications to the country of origin, students with a migration background and/or nationality of the host country chosen in the application. Such criteria have to be communicated transparently.

After the selection process is completed, the departmental coordinator informs all applicants about the result of their application. He/She will then nominate the selected students at the host institution and also at the Global Office of Goethe-University. Only then our staff can activate your participant's account, in which most of all ERASMUS formalia will be handled by us and by you. You can update your personal data, receive certificates of participation, Grant Agreements, and other documents as downloads, and you upload completed documents such as Certificate of Arrival, Testimonial, Proof of Academic Recognition, etc.

In case of questions regarding the online application process please contact us at the Global Office.

In order to allow cooperation and mobility within the ERASMUS program a cooperation contract called "bilateral agreement" has to be established between the departments or institutes of two universities. It is a prerequisite that both institutions have a valid ERASMUS-Charter.

A list of all of Goethe University's ERASMUS partner institutions, the cooperation contract period and the departmental coordinators responsible for the respective cooperation can be found here:
