Erasmus+ scholarship

The Erasmus+ long-term study mobility grant consists of funding from the European Commission and co-financing from the Republic of Latvia.

Additional financial support for participants with fewer opportunities:

If a mobility participant meets one of the criteria for fewer opportunities and provides an appropriate supporting document, they may apply for one-time additional funding. For more details, please see the Declaration of Honour. The additional support rate for participants with fewer opportunities is up to 250 EUR per month.

Travel support

All mobility participants are granted one-time financial support for travel expenses. The calculation of travel support is based on the cities of the sending and receiving organisations where the mobility universities are located. The University of Latvia encourages participants to consider the risks related to the environment and climate change and, whenever possible, use green travel solutions. For more details, please see the Declaration of Honour.

If, according to the distance calculator developed by the European Commission, the distance between the sending and receiving institutions is up to 500 km, travel should, whenever possible, be carried out using low-emission or environmentally friendly means of transport (green travel):

• bus;
• train;
• bicycle;
• shared car (together with other Erasmus+ mobility students from the University of Latvia).

Travel support is calculated according to the Erasmus+ Programme Distance Calculator.
