The assessment will be taken in the main language of instruction of the host institution\/organisation and is available for all official European languages. The students will receive an invitation to the language assessment via email. There might be a possibility to get a voucher for online language course in the case when student’s language level is below the level requested by the host institution. The language test result does not affect your possibilities of getting accepted by the partner school, however, you may improve your language proficiency by participating in the offered language course during your mobility period. Following the course is not mandatory, but we strongly advise it for student\u2019s own benefit.<\/p>\n The licence for the test is issued by the International Office once a student\u2019s upcoming mobility has received full confirmation from the host and the EAMT.<\/p>\n"},{"title":"OLA - online learning agreement","text":" The prerequisite for studying at a host university is the completion of a trilateral (student, EAMT, host university) learning agreement.<\/p>\n Learning agreement <\/b>is a document confirming the study plan for the mobility period between the home institution, the host institution and the student.

In case of the green way of travel, it is possible to extend the granted period of the study abroad by the travel dates due to longer trips. This is provided in case the actual travel dates prove it. It is also possible to apply only for an additional allowance and not to use the extension of the granted study abroad period (if it’s not appropriate).<\/p>\n Erasmus+ additional grant for the students with special needs<\/strong> Estonian government co-financing<\/strong> Erasmus grant receivers may not simultaneously receive another EU-funded scholarship (e.g. Kristjan Jaak).

Reserving a spot in a dormitory usually requires sending in an application before a certain deadline and\/or paying a deposit\/application fee. Even if the university you are going to does not provide student housing, they may be able to offer you tips on how to find a place to live on your own. While you may use your Erasmus scholarship to pay for housing, it is not directly paid for by the programme, so be sure you have a good idea of your monthly costs. Do not hesitate to ask the receiving university for information or assistance.<\/p>\n\n

\nYou can receive a bonus if you use environmentally friendly, sustainable means of transport for your trip to your host country and back. This includes travel by train or by bus.
\nThe support consists of:
\na) one-time additional travel top-up;
\nb) extension of the study abroad granted period by up to 4 travel days (up to 2 days for going to study abroad destination and up to 2 travel days for returning from studies abroad).<\/p>\n
\nStudents with physical, mental or health-related special needs may apply for a grant in addition to the regular Erasmus+ study mobility grant. In anticipation of your Erasmus+ mobility, you must indicate your needs and foreseen extra costs associated with your physical, mental or health-related special needs in order to apply for the Erasmus+ special needs support grant. Areas that could be eligible for support linked to your Erasmus+ mobility, according to individual needs, include but are not limited to: adapted accommodation, travel assistance, medical care, medical support equipment, modified learning materials, an accompanying person, etc. NB! In case of additional support related to actual costs: cost documents addressed to and paid by the participant (agreement, invoice, payment order, cash check). Spendings must be done during the mobility period. If any of these conditions apply to you, please contact the Erasmus Coordinator and explain your condition and possible associated costs.<\/p>\n
\nErasmus+ participants who are students of Estonian universities receive co-financing from the Estonian government. In determining the amount of each government stipend, the EAMT takes into account the total amount of money allotted to the academy and the number of students studying abroad during the period of financing. To allot this stipend, we sign a contract similar to the Erasmus+ grant agreement; it does not have to be applied for separately.<\/p>\n\n
