Students and graduates (exclusively for internships) with fewer opportunities have the possibility of
- a monthly top-up of EUR 250 per month in addition to the regular Erasmus+ funding rate (in any case)
- and inclusion support (if required).
Top up
is available in the following mobility programs:
Erasmus+ program
Scholarship abroad to prepare the thesis
Mobility scholarship (study stay with bilateral partners)
Inclusion support
only in the
Erasmus+ program
The Erasmus+ inclusion support provides funding in addition to the monthly lump sum (top-up) for actual additional costs incurred in connection with a specific personal situation during the Erasmus+ stay. Inclusion support also enables a preparatory visit.
For further information on criteria, application and proof, please contact the International Office of the University of Arts Linz.
Application procedure
- Inform the International Offices of the home university and the host institution at the time of application.
- Make an appointment for a preparatory meeting with the project coordinator of the home university.
- The home university decides on the submission of the application.
- The application is submitted by the home university to the Austrian National Agency, at least 8 weeks before the start of the mobility period.
- The Austrian National Agency decides on the approval of the application subject to budgetary eligibility.
- Applications after the start of a mobility can no longer be considered.
- Inclusion support is based on real costs. The Erasmus+ project only funds costs that have actually been incurred.
Target groups
Students and recent graduates (exclusively for internships)
- with disabilities
- with health problems, if this results in increased financial expenditure during the stay abroad (compared to the stay in the sending country)
- with a child/with children requiring care who are taken to the place of study/internship and are in the host country for the entire duration of the stay
- with fewer opportunities, who do not fall into one of the above target groups but still have a real need for additional financial support, can make their additional costs known via an application for Erasmus+ inclusion support.
If you have any questions on this topic, please do not hesitate to contact your program advisor in the International Office team.
