Fund your mobility
Please note that gap years are not eligible for supervised exchange programmes or for mobility scholarships (except the gap year as part of the Science Po double diploma).
As a student of a higher education institution dependent on the Ministry of Culture, you can apply, on your own and without going through the school's services, for scholarships common to all students in France, or through the school for scholarships specific to the school.
Applying via the School's services
Complete the scholarships application form (available on the Extranet, under School life > Financial aid) and upload the documents requested.
- Before you leave on your mobility programme, fill in the mobility kit which will be sent to you by the International Relations department.
- At the start of your mobility programme: send in your arrival certificate
- On your return from your mobility programme: send in your return certificate
- You will also need to complete the report required of anyone taking part in the Erasmus+ programme, whether or not they are in receipt of a mobility grant.

As part of a national inclusion policy, several criteria specified in the Erasmus+ circular published in the Official Bulletin of National Education (No. 16 of April 22, 2021) identify specific audiences for which the Erasmus+ France Agency will trigger “support for inclusion”. For the higher education sector, support for inclusion takes the form of an additional monthly amount of €250 from the Erasmus+ scholarship in order to encourage public participation. Meeting one of these criteria entitles you to the supplement.
