Distance between your place of origin and the CNE coordinator (Marseille) determines the contribution to travel costs of students that were awarded an EMJMD Scholarship. The proof of residence is thus required to ascertain the place of origin.

It is a scanned copy of an official document that certifies your residence and clearly states your actual place of stay.
The document can either be:

• a certificate of residence in line with the provisions of the municipality where the student is registered;
• a certificate confirming the place of employment or study/training, issued by the employer or the institution where the student studies/finished his/her studies.

It must be an officially notarized copy in English or an official English translation of the original document and must have been issued within 12 months before the application deadline.

You can spend parts of your studies in your country of residence. However, since the EMJMD Programme aims at supporting studies abroad, the monthly scholarship is interrupted in the following cases:

• when a student spends periods of time in their country of residence (study / research / internship / thesis
  preparation);
• when a student from a Partner country spends more than three months in any Partner country other than
  his/her own country of residence.

Check if the 12-month residence rule applies to you. If you are a national from a Partner country and have carried out your main activity (studies, training or work) for more than a total of 12 months over the last 5 years in one or several Programme country(ies), you should apply as Programme country candidate.

The wording “total of 12 months” refers to all possible cases: a single period in one Programme country, several periods in one Programme country or the sum of different periods in different Programme countries.

The 5-year reference period is calculated backwards from the EMJMD scholarship application deadline. This 12-month rule does not apply to Partner country candidates who hold refugee status in a Programme country.

If you are a national from a Partner country and the 12-month residence rule does not apply to you, you should apply as a Partner country candidate.

You have to choose under which nationality you want to apply.

Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees (EMJMDs) are international master programmes delivered by a group of universities from different countries with specific expertise and interest in the study programme. These programmes are based on excellence, and therefore have specific requirements which often respond to specialised profiles.

While there is no formal restriction in the number of applications a student might submit, we generally recommend to potential applicants to choose carefully the master courses on the basis of the preconditions/selection criteria described on the websites of the respective EMJMDs.

No. The same application will be used to decide if you are accepted to the Programme as well as if you are awarded an EMJMD scholarship, depending on your ranking (Main List and Reserve List)

We invite you to indicate in the application form whether you would accept to register as self-funded students if not accepted as a scholarship holder.

No, the grant is awarded for a specific campaign and cannot be postponed.

A few self-funded students may be accepted (in addition to the ones that were awarded an EMJMD Scholarships).
Several options may help to handle the tuition fees and other living expenses.

For instance, if you come from a Program Country, you may apply to the Erasmus+ Master Degree Loan https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/erasmusplus/opportunities/individuals/students/erasmus-plus-master-degree-loans_en

Otherwise, you can check for the public grants or private foundations from your own country
