The Selection Call of the Erasmus+ for study programme for a mobility in the academic year 2026/27 is available at the webpage Erasmus+ for long-term study.

The deadline for applications is set on Monday, 26 January at 12:00 CET (noon).

Before applying

  • attend the International Days or the Info Meetings organized by the International Mobility office
  • get the required level of knowledge of the language you are interested in time through the CLA language tests or through an international certification
  • check carefully if the educational offer of the Partner University fits with your study plan
  • check carefully which courses of your study plan can be taken in the Partner Universities you are interested in
  • note that the Erasmus scholarship is meant as a partial coverage of the living expenses. While choosing the destination you should consider the cost of living of the host country. 

Minimum Admission Requirements

You have to fullfill the requirements set in the Call for Applications. The requirements are:

  • a minimum number of credits according to the year you are enrolled in (see article 2 of the Call);
  • be considered as regularly enrolled student with status "in corso";
  • certify the minimum language level set by the Call by the deadline (min. B2 for English, A2 for Spanish, B1 for French, German, Portuguese). The language requirement should be coherent with the chosen destination/s.

Language Requirement

The level of language proficiency shall be certified in one of the following ways:

  • Holding a language certificate among those listed on the Language Centre (CLA) webpage - section "INTERNATIONAL CERTIFICATES ACCEPTED AS ENTRY REQUIREMENT FOR DEGREE PROGRAMMES AND COURSES AT THE LANGUAGE CENTRE AND INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGES" (the certificate has to be uploaded in the online application);
  • Being a native speaker in the required language (this requisite has to be declared in the online application);
  • Having passed the CLA language exam testing the four abilities (reading, speaking, writing and listening) if available in the candidates’ UniTrento study plan and if the language is the same and the level is at least the same as the one required by the partner University (this requisite has to be declared in the online application);
  • Having passed the language exam testing the four abilities in another University, if the language is the same and the level is at least the same as the one required by the partner University (in case of destinations with two languages the candidate must choose one language for carrying out study/internship activities. If the candidates choose both languages available this will be considered equal as choosing two different destinations)
  • Holding a high school, Bachelor or Master’s Degree diploma either awarded in a country where the official language is the same as the required one or taught in the required language (non-EU citizens have to submit a copy of a written statement by the school/university that awarded the degree and cannot provide a self-declaration);
  • Having passed the Language Centre (CLA) four-abilities language test for a previous call by the University of Trento (this requisite has to be declared in the online application, specifying the call for which the test was taken);
  • Being enrolled in an English-taught Degree or in a doctoral course, whose language admission requirements were at least of the same level as the one listed in Attachment 1 (this requisite has to be declared in the online application);
  • Only for students of the Faculty of Law applying for the German linguistic area: having passed the Legal German exam at least at a B1 level testing the four abilities (reading, speaking, writing and listening) - as an alternative to other modalities;

For destinations with double language, you can apply only with one language per destination: this means that you do not have to comply both levels of the two languages, but just one. If you apply with the English language for a University where English is not the local language, please check carefully the educational offer in English of the Host University. 

Further details are at the webpage Language Requirements.

Selection Criteria

The ranking is prepared on the basis of the score achieved by each student on the basis of certain parameters established by the Commission.

Study project - max 20 points

The Study Project must be drafted in either Italian or English using the template attached to the call for applications. It is evaluated by a Committee composed of faculty members from the Faculty of Law. It must clearly outline the student's personal and academic motivations regarding the chosen destination(s).

Furthermore, it is essential to include—within the specific tables—a detailed proposal of the educational activities intended to be carried out at the chosen host universities, indicating the corresponding recognition of activities required by the student's degree program at UniTrento. Please note that if elective courses or "free choice" activities are proposed for which there is no analogous course at UniTrento, it is still permitted to request recognition as a "complementary / free choice exam." Students are required to list a number of foreign courses with a total workload of approximately 30 ECTS credits per planned semester of mobility.

Language proficiency level - max 20 points

The level of language proficiency relative to the application’s linguistic area is taken into consideration, as well as the successful completion of a legal language course in that same area. If a student applies for different linguistic areas, they may receive different scores based on the language area of the specific destination.

English Other languages (French, German, Spanish, Portuguese)
---- Level A2: 12 points
Level B2: 14 points Level B1: 14 points
Level C1: 16 points Level  B2: 16 points
Level C2: 18 points Level C1-C2: 18 points
Legal English exam (B2/C1) passed by the application deadline: 2 points Legal language exam passed by the application deadline: 2 points

 

​Weighted average  - max 30 points

The weighted average recorded as of October 31, 2025, is taken into consideration.

  • For Master’s students who, as of October 31, 2025, have not acquired at least 18 credits registered with a grade, the grade of their previous degree will be considered. For foreign degrees, if a grade is unavailable, the GPA (Grade Point Average) converted to a 30-point scale will be used.

  • For first-year Bachelor’s or Single-cycle Master’s students, this criterion does not apply; instead, the scores for language proficiency and the study project will be recalculated out of 100.

Credit Quotient - max 30 points

This is based on the ratio between credits earned and credits earnable as of October 31, 2025, assuming an average workload of 30 ECTS per semester.

  • For first-year Master’s students, this criterion does not apply; instead, the scores for language proficiency, study project, and weighted average will be recalculated out of 100.

  • For first-year Bachelor’s or Single-cycle Master’s students, this criterion does not apply; instead, the scores for language proficiency and the study project will be recalculated out of 100.

 

The Committee will allocate the destinations on the basis of the points obtained by the students.
