Erasmus+ is a part of the EU educational program for lifelong learning. More than 1.5 million students took advantage of this program over the last 20 years. Therefore – as an Erasmus student you are not alone! You can be a part of this success story.

You may become an ERASMUS student at the Hochschule Mainz if your home university has an Inter-Institutional Agreement with one of our Schools.

The agreement of cooperation must include exchange places in your course of study. First, your application for an Erasmus study period must be submitted to your home university. If your application is approved by your university, you will be nominated for the Hochschule Mainz.

Deadlines for application

Your benefits

• Flexible program length; you can stay either one or two semesters
• Full recognition of your Mainz credits at your home university is guaranteed through the use of the Learning Agreement and ECTS credits.

ECTS and Learning Agreement

Before you leave for Germany, please record in the so-called learning agreement those courses which you intend to take during your Erasmus+ stay at the Hochschule Mainz and have it approved both by your home university and by the Hochschule Mainz. This document is required in order to have your Mainz credits honoured by your home university later on.
