Erasmus+ programmeIncoming students – with Erasmus+ to Nürnberg

The application for an Erasmus+ programme at our university is made in consultation with and with the nomination of the International Office of your home university via the new European application platform of the AEC EASY-Mobility Online.

Please note: Only complete applications that are submitted on time via EASY-Mobility Online and with the nomination of the home university will be accepted.

Students who are not studying at one of our ERASMUS+ partner universities, but are enrolled at a university in one of the programme countries, should contact the International Office of their university. If possible, we will then initiate an ERASMUS+ partnership. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the level of a cooperation agreement, as we receive many more ERASMUS+ applications each year than we can accept.
