For students
Students and recent graduates who choose to travel in an environmentally friendly way receive a one-time special grant (Green travel top-up) of EUR 50,- and additional individual support for up to four days of travel. This serves as an incentive to use climate-friendly and lower-emission (public) means of transport, such as train and bus, or carpooling with at least two other people.
The Green Erasmus website provides inspiration and information for planning a sustainable Erasmus experience: https://www.greenerasmus.org/
This group includes:
Students and recent graduates with fewer opportunities receive a special grant to cover additional costs incurred in the course of the mobility. This is a monthly top-up of EUR 250,- which is added to the monthly grant amount.
In addition, students or recent graduates embarking on funded mobility in a partner country (excluding UK and Switzerland) are entitled to a one-off travel grant. In the case of environmentally friendly travel using lower-emission means of transport (see above), a higher one-off grant and up to four additional funded travel days may be awarded.
Should the top-up for students and recent graduates with fewer opportunities not be sufficient to cover the increased financial effort compared to the stay in the sending country, inclusion support can be applied for in case of disability or chronic illness.
Should the top-up for students and recent graduates with fewer opportunities not be sufficient to cover the increased financial effort compared to the stay in the sending country, inclusion support can be applied for in case of disability or chronic illness.
Furthermore, students who do not count among the participants with lower opportunities defined in Austria and do not receive a top-up, but can prove that they have a need for additional financial support based on real costs, may also apply for inclusion support. There is no automatic entitlement to inclusion support, applications will be assessed case-by-case by the university as well as by the OeAD as the national agency.
Erasmus+ participants with a disability or chronic illness can apply for inclusion support to cover their increased financial costs (compared to the stay in the sending country).
