Erasmus is generally competitive. A guy applied to one of the programs during the last call with a 4.49cgpa but was not offered a scholarship. I also know of another with a 4.47cgpa that applied without an offer of scholarship. We can only put in our best effort and pray for success

Yeah. I think most Erasmus programs assess each applicant's qualifications holistically (academic grade, relevance of previous degrees to the choosen program, research ability, awards and other relevant extra-curricula activities) rather than just grading by their strong CGPA, Although strong CGPA also increase ones chances of been selected.Let's just pray we get favored this year.

EMJMD....One of the best and juiciest scholarship in the world. smiley wink ......Let me go ahead


List of old programs currently offered (some may be removed by Sept/Oct 2018).

https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/erasmus-plus/library/emjmd-catalogue_en

New 45 programs opening up in September/October 2018. This new 45 programs would be added to the ones left behind from the old list. In all, 110 programs would be funded by the EACEA for 2018/2019.

https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/sites/eacea-site/files/2018_emjmd_selection_results_-final.pdf

Go through both links and select three programs that you would apply to when the call for applications begins. Each program has its specific opening and deadline dates.

Use your search engine and find the website of the three programs you have selected for application. Note: the programs you've selected must be in tandem with your academic/work/research background. Even if you have the best result, picking a wrong program can affect your selection.

Hence, read through each program's website. Take your time and digest it's contents. Look out for documents required : Copy of your Transcript, Certificate, No/Type of Referees, TOEFL/IELTS scores, Motivation letter/Essay prompts, CV( Prepare one according to the Europass Format. "Google this"wink etc

Meanwhile, get an Intl passport if you don't have one as this is required in registering for the TOEFL/IELTS exam. It's important you write either of this test as it would give you more opportunities in terms of applications. You'll be able to apply, not only for the Erasmus Mundus program, but to other scholarships around the world.


Your motivation letter is very important. It has to tell a story. Connect dots from your past experiences with what you hope to achieve going forward. You'll be doing a lot of drafting, editing, proof reading and the likes. Prepare your mind for this. Start brainstorming on how you wanna shapen this letter. It is very crucial in the application process. You must be able to sell yourself

Your referees should be the ones that are accessible. They should be internet savvy and also possess a bit of online presence. They should be able to write top-notch reference letters on your behalf  and not the "cliché" type. So choose your refeeres wisely. Referees with institutional email are preferable.

Your CGPA is not only the deciding factor here. If your CGPA is average, other aspects of the application has to be water tight ( e.g relevant work experience, publication, volunteer experience, leadership e.t.c). Seunbunmi won this scholarship in the past with a 2.1 CGPA(3.8 .So don't let that deter you.

The journey to selection and  Sept. 2019 entry is a tough one. However, it is doable. I want y'all to prepare your mind towards it.

If you have specific questions, feel free to ask. However, that should be after you've made efforts to make research on your own.

Bonne Chance à tous!

I'm Erasmus for Life!!


Hello, congrats... I have been selected by my course for scholarship consideration but they want me to legalize my documents, which is really tedious... do you think it will affect my scholarship chances if i dont legalize my documents? thanks

I think someone was placed under the same condition last year. He eventually got the scholarship, but it can only be valid once he sends his legalised docs.

If they say you're still under scholarship consideration, it is an open statement.

I will advise you to contact them, and ask for your ranking on the consideration list.

If you're replied to be on a high ranking, then legalising your docs should follow.

I wish you all the best Bro...

Which program is that?

Can you share the house your profile?

I have watched testimonial of someone who got the scholarship with 64%. Yes, 64%... But, he made it known that he had a very rich research experience.


To get connected to @Jamaticulus and others who know much about your current status, message them on the Facebook Group - Erasmus Mundus Nigeria...

All the best once again Bro...

It's not a guarantee bro.....the rule is that you send in your legalized documents. If the consortium doesn't have it, there is no way they can confirm it's authenticity...Because of Fraud issues...

It's a risk bro...No one here can tell you if you would get the scholarship or not.

For more clarifications...shoot a mail to the coordinator/secretary.

I think in his situation, no ranking has been done yet. If I'm correct.... The program deadline (IMSOGLO) is still weeks away, March 1st to be precise...

If he doesn't send it, I fear he might not even be considered when they panel starts drawing up the rankings...

I guess your program is sinrem. If yes then it's one of the risk you have to take. I personally don't like their process. Bit I think you can go for if you're willing.
