University of Burgundy

Financial aid

A number of grants are available for students going abroad on an exchange or internship.

Eligibility conditions may depend on the type of mobility (different exchange programmes, studies, internships...), the budget available, the number of applicants, your socio-economic situation, the destination country or the duration of your mobility.

These grants can often be combined. In some cases, they will cover all your mobility costs (travel, accommodation, food, sightseeing, etc.), especially if you are going to countries where the cost of living is lower. But some of you will need to have your own budget to (co)finance the cost of your international mobility. Whatever your situation, you need to ensure that you have sufficient financial resources in advance, because even if you are eligible to one or more grants, payments may be made several weeks or months after your departure, depending on how long it takes for your application to be processed administratively and financially.

To find out about the cost of living in the country and city where you will be staying, you can consult the following comparison sites:

Who is eligible for this grant? What are the eligibility conditions?

uB’s students, receiving the Crous social criteria grant, who go to study or do an internship abroad as part of their university curriculum. During the duration of the stay abroad, the ministerial aid for international mobility is added to the social criteria grant.

Eligible candidates must:

  • be registered at the University of Burgundy as a degree-seeking students at the time of the application and during the mobility;
  • receive, via Crous, a grant on social criteria from the French Ministry of higher education (0 bis grade included), or, benefit from an annual emergency aid, allocated by Crous according to the specific conditions at that moment;
  • be completing a study exchange programme or internship abroad, as part of their degree, for a minimum of 59 consecutive days;
  • be in the process of completing their degree (bachelor's, master's, DUT...) : a national diploma credited by the French Ministery of high education;
  • just like French students, all international degree-seeking students who are enrolled at uB are potentially eligible for this aid provided that they fulfil the conditions mentioned here above.

Ineligible candidates:

  • students who receive a prêt d'honneur (a no interest loan given to those in certain circumstances);
  • PhD students;
  • students doing DU diplomas or DUETI;
  • students who, during their previous stays abroad, have already received the maximum amount allowed from this aid which is 3.600 euros.

How to apply?

Applications are made through Mobility-Online International office's platform when applying for studies or internship abroad. When you fill out the form, you must indicate that you will receive a Crous bursary during your international mobility so that your request can be taken into account automatically.

Please fill in only one form per mobility.

For example:

  • if you are going abroad as part of an Erasmus+ exchange programme, you need to fill in Mobility-Online form for studies abroad. It is in this same form that you will automatically apply for both grants: Erasmus+ grant for studies and Ministerial aid;

  • if you are going to do an internship abroad and wish to apply for the Ministerial aid and the Erasmus+ grant for internships you only need to fill in the application form once.

Don't forget to specify in your application form that you will receive a Crous bursary even if you have not yet received the official response from CROUS. If it is confirmed that you will receive a CROUS bursary, you must upload the official bursary statement as soon as you have received it. Students who are going abroad to complete an internship must also upload their internship contract to their account. If you do not upload this document your request will not be considered.

What is the application deadline?

It corresponds to the application dates for the different types of mobility (studies, internships) – your request for ministerial aid will therefore be processed at the same time as your study/internship mobility file.

How much is the grant?

The amount may depend on several factors:

  • the destination country;
  • the duration of the stay;
  • the number of requests received;
  • the budget allocated to the University of Burgundy by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research.

Estimated amounts that will be allocated to eligible students, within the limits of the budget granted to uB by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research.

But be aware that the total sum a student can receive throughout their entire university period cannot exceed 3.600 euros.

  • Financial aid from the embassy of your destination country.
  • Agence universitaire de la Francophonie financial aid for internships abroad.
  • Various organisations offer financial aid for very specific projects: research stays, thematic internships, cultural and linguistic discovery of a country, internships for young graduates ,... In the majority of cases, these are mobilities that you can carry out outside of your studies at the University of Burgundy, but some of the grants can also finance your study or internship stay abroad as part of your training at uB, such as the Eole excellence scholarship from the Franco-Dutch network or the scholarship from the Franco-Bavarian University Cooperation Centre aimed at the students doing their studies or research internship in Bavaria.
  • Loans and bursaries are offered by certain French banks for their clients.

If you are going to be receiving another bursary which is not an Erasmus+ grant, Ministerial aid or the Regional council of Burgundy-Franche-Comté's bursary for international mobility, you must check that the bursary in question can be combined with the other grants that you will receive.
