Students receive the following benefits during their study abroad with ERASMUS+:

•     a monthly scholarship depending on the destination country; in addition, Auslands-BAföG is possible
•     6 or 12 months of study at one of the numerous partner universities
•     waiver of tuition fees at the host university
•     recognition of achievements abroad after prior consultation
•     support for academic and linguistic preparation
•     support from the host university regarding accommodation, cultural offers, etc.

Applications are to be submitted for an ERASMUS+ Study for one or/and two semesters, depending on the agreement situation. Please note that other countries define the academic year differently (for example, starting in September). You can find more details on the websites of the respective partner universities.

Application Documents

• Application form of the International Office
• note: although it says otherwise on the form, do not attach letters of recommendation from professors.
• proof of your academic achievements as a copy (overview of grades)
• proof of language skills (Abitur, certificates)
• curriculum vitae in tabular form
• letter of motivation in German (1 to 2 pages), in case of several requests one letter of motivation each.

The nomination is made on the basis of the criteria listed below, usually by the end of February. You will receive a corresponding nomination letter with information on the contact persons at the desired partner university and instructions on the further procedure in the preparation of the study agreement/learning agreement.

Selection Criteria

• the prerequisite is: you have the required level of the language of instruction.
• academic achievement (40%)
• extracurricular engagement (10%)
• study project / motivation (30%)
• language of instruction competencies (20%)

After you have been nominated for a place abroad, communication will continue to be as digital as possible via email or Zoom meeting. Necessary forms can be signed and sent digitally.

The following steps have to be planned:

1. Find out more about the next steps on the platform of the International Office.
2. Download the Checklist as well as the KeyForms document (download-section).
3. Contact the responsible coordinator at the partner university. Please ask whether the study project planned in the letter of motivation is feasible. Ask for more detailed information about deadlines, especially the deadlines regarding enrollment and how this takes place.
4. You will document the outcome of your consultation in a draft Learning Agreement (LA) (Table A1). You will find the template of the document in the way guide. Also try to find out which courses you would like to receive credit for in your degree program for the courses chosen in A1 at the partner university (Table B1). Send the draft by e-mail to your coordinator at the University of Leipzig Dr. Christian Hahn.
5. Of course, you can also make an appointment for a personal meeting if you have problems with the documents. Please make an appointment by email if necessary.

1. Agree on Study Plans
Before your stay abroad, talk to your Erasmus+ subject coordinator Dr. Christian Hahn about which courses at the foreign partner university can be recognized towards your studies. Please inform yourself about possible courses at your preferred universities. Often a glance at the most recent course catalog is sufficient. To speed up the process, it would be desirable if you could translate module descriptions that are not available in German or English into German using common websites (e.g. deepl.com).

2. Create a Study Agreement (Learning Agreement)
Create the study agreement after consultation with your Erasmus+ Coordinator Dr. Christian Hahn before starting your stay abroad. You can find an explanatory video on how to draw up the study agreement here.

Learning Agreement form

The following criteria apply for the recognition of your achievements completed at the partner university:

•     the learning outcomes and competencies are comparable (mentioned in module description)
•     the level of study is comparable
•     the courses fit into the qualification goal and study profile of your study program
•     the amount of work to be done is comparable

•     We recommend a maximum sum of 5 LP/ECTS credits per month during the stay abroad; it should not be less than 10 LP/ ECTS credits for one semester.
•     Students will receive the Erasmus+ scholarship even if they do not reach the total completely; the attempt counts.
