Financial support
Exchange students can apply for a scholarship if they will study abroad with the Erasmus+ programme. Do note that scholarship is not guaranteed!
Scholarship is designed to cover additional costs related to the exchange. It might not cover all costs related to studying abroad, thus self-financing might be necessary. As with students who study in Estonia, the exchange student is entitled to receive state scholarships, study subsidies and loans for the whole study period.
The student can apply for an additional subsidy from state and private funds for the period of their studies abroad. However, during the period abroad the Erasmus+ student cannot use any other scholarships provided by the official structures of the European Union.

What happens if I don’t receive scholarship?
One can use the status and the privileges of being an Erasmus+ student even without a scholarship. The participant can go abroad and do everything the same way as fellow students but they will fund their exchange period themselves.
How many times can I apply for scholarship?
Students can go abroad for 3* to 12 months (including a complementary traineeship period if planned). The same student may receive grants for studying or being trained abroad to tallying up to 12 months maximum per each cycle of study (bachelor, master, doctoral).
That means if you wish and are granted, you can go abroad for a semester, do a short-term mobility called BIP and do your internship abroad. As long as the days don’t go over the given maximum, you have the possibility for the support.
*for 2 to 12 months for traineeship abroad
