The project is open to students and scholars from the Asian Countries targeted (Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, The Philippines, Vietnam) willing to spend a mobility period abroad in Europe for the purpose of studying, teaching, training and research.
You can apply to study and participate in this programme for an enriching experience on both a personal and a professional point of view.
Students and scholars can choose from a wide variety of academic fields at different levels of study (Undergraduate, Master, Doctorate, Post-Doctorate and Staff) at one of the European partner Universities. Scholarships will be given to applicants selected by the Consortium.
The programme finances the expenses engendered by the mobility, including travel costs, subsistence allowances, tuition/registration fees and insurance costs.

Scholarships
All applicants having completed the online application form will be evaluated by an academic commission at each host University and the best candidates will be selected for receiving a scholarship. The list of nominated candidates will be approved by the Education Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) of the European Commission.
Successful applicants will be awarded a scholarship which will cover a monthly subsistence allowance, travel costs and insurance. Participants will not be required to pay any tuition fees at the host university.
Once candidates have been selected for the program, before they start receiving their scholarship, they will be asked to subscribe a specific agreement concerning their duties and responsibilities.
Payments will be transferred to their bank account in Europe.

Travel costs and insurance
Your travel costs will be covered within the total limit of 2,000 – 2,500 euro. These rates are established by the European Commission on the basis of the linear distance between your location of origin and the hosting university premises.
The AREAS Consortium provide a full insurance coverage (health, travel, accident) to all the grant holders participating in the individual mobility activities.
Participation costs
Participants at any level will not be required to pay any fees or compensation (such as tuition and registration fees, additional library, students unions, laboratory consumable costs and language courses costs) to the host universities. Exchange students will continue paying their registration fees at their university of origin.
The tuition fees for students applying for a full degree program will be covered by the project.
The EU financing provides funds for participation costs that will be used by the Consortium to partly compensate the host universities for fees and other costs.
