Useful information

a) Exchange duration

The student must make an assessment of the language level required by the institution before and another one at the end of the exchange through Online Linguistic Support. Using the same tool, students can also take courses in several languages.

c) Erasmus+ grants and university fees

Depending on the availability of scholarships and of the student’s position in the Erasmus+ selection process, it is possible to obtain a monthly scholarship and financial aid for transportation. Values can be found here. Students with disabilities (e.g. long-term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments) can apply for additional help.

It is also possible to participate in Erasmus+ without a scholarship. In this case, the student must have been approved in the selection process and the costs are the individual responsibility. During the period abroad, the students do not pay fees at the destination institution. It is only necessary to continue to pay LUNEX University fees normally.

d) Housing

The responsibility for finding housing lies with the student. Some institutions offer university residences. This information must be obtained directly from the destination institution.

e) Erasmus+ App

Before departure, the student must register with the Erasmus+ app.

Students must guarantee their health coverage during their stay abroad. It is recommended to apply for the European Health Insurance Card or check its expiration date.

Upon returning, the student must send the Erasmus+ Certificate of departure and the document of the credits obtained abroad to erasmus@lunex-university.net.
