Who Can Participate in the Erasmus+ Programme?
Anyone who is registered as a full-time student at ITU
- Students enrolled in preparatory programs, first-year students, and graduated students are not eligible to participate in study mobility activities. However, they are allowed to apply for mobility in the following term and can start benefiting from the mobility program starting from their second year of study.
If it has benefited from higher education mobility activities in the 2014-2020 and/or 2021-2027 Erasmus+ periods within the current education level, the total duration must not exceed 12 months with the new activity.
The students who applied for an Erasmus+ exchange in a previous application period but were not selected/accepted.
The students, who benefited from an Erasmus+ exchange can participate in an Erasmus+ exchange in a different education level once again without facing any reduction. However, in accordance with the rules of the Turkish National Agency, in addition to the academic achievement and foreign language result average; While calculating the academic success and foreign language score averages of students who have previously benefited from mobility within the scope of the Lifelong Learning Program or Erasmus+ within the same education level, a 10-point reduction is applied for each activity previously benefited from (without distinction between education and traineeship). In case of previous use, the application of -10 points is not applied to the mobilities carried out in the previous education level. It is applied if a student who has completed mobility applies again within the same education level.
In cases where candidates apply for both Study and Traineeship Mobility simultaneously, the "10-point deduction" will be applied based on the preference of the students. Students in this situation are required to write a petition indicating their preference for which activity the deduction should be applied to and upload it to the Turkish National Agency Application Portal along with the Application Form. If a student who has previously benefited from mobility applies for both study and traineeship activities at the same time, a "-20" point deduction will be applied to the type of mobility they have previously benefited from, and a "-10" point deduction will be applied to the second type of mobility they are applying for.
Due to the difficulty of determining the duration and equivalence of final projects, taking the final course at the host institution is subject to the approval of the Erasmus+ Department/Program Coordinator and the relevant Dean's Office. These students may participate in mobility; however, they may not be able to undertake their final projects during the mobility period.
Every student selected as an Erasmus+ student must utilize this right within the academic year and within the department/program for which they were selected. If a student forfeits their Erasmus+ right by completing the cancellation procedure for any reason, they cannot transfer this right to another or subsequent academic year. However, the student may apply to become an Erasmus+ student in future application periods but will be subject to the application and selection process again.
Double Major students can apply to Erasmus+ exchange only for single programme. Double Major students who have graduated from one programme can apply for Erasmus+ for the other registered programme.
