Request your Erasmus scholarship in Barcelona
The first thing you have to do is go to the International Relations department at your home university. The registration period is usually in the month of November and December of the previous year that you would like to travel to study in Barcelona.
There are several factors that the university will analyze before granting the scholarship, such as:
Academic note: Obviously, students with the best average grade in their studies are more likely to get an Erasmus scholarship.
Level of languages: If you do not have any official certificate that accredits you at least one B1 level, you will have to take a level test, which will be carried out by the university itself when the registration period ends.
Take a look at our blog and discover some local expressions for sure it helps you in your level test!
Course to which you request enrollment: Normally, if you are in a more advanced course, you will have more chances of being awarded the scholarship than if you are in your first year of university.
You will also have to present a motivation letter, where you must explain the reasons why you want to enjoy your Erasmus scholarship in Barcelona.
They can also request documentation regarding the level of family income to justify the need for financial assistance.
Once the process has started, you should wait for the publication of the first provisional list, where students who meet the admission requirements to apply for the scholarship are listed and if any documentation is missing.
After the claim period, the final list is published, indicating if you have finally been lucky and you have been awarded the Erasmus scholarship in Barcelona!
If so, you must formalize in writing in the International Relations department the acceptance of the scholarship and also contact the university in Barcelona to confirm that they accept you.
Finally, with both universities, you must design your study plan, which must be approved by the faculty.
