Who needs Erasmus? We've an Exchange Program!

They're from foreign countries. They party a lot. They eat out more often. They study less subjects, and you can't stop liking them. You know whom I'm talking about, the Erasmus students.

Have you ever wanted to become one of them, an exchange student? You study abroad, travel a lot and the government pays for it. (Ok, we international students are studying abroad after all, but think about the government grant :D)

Well, students from Mongolia, Belarus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Georgia, Hungary, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Macedonia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, Ukraine are invited to participate in HESP. You can choose from these universities to study.

Length of your study is up to one semester, which is Five months.

So what's the catch?
* travel-related expenses (travel, visa, insurance);
* living expenses (stipend);
* accommodation;
* book allowance.

You can apply in any time of the year, but it should be three months before the semester you'll study.

Packing up already? You should write a letter to any school you like and find a course that is similar to yours.

That's it for now. Have a happy exchange!
