Hi Jezeree! I'm planning to apply for the same program as you. Hoping to connect with you soon and wishing you all the best in your academic journey! Truly inspiring.

Hello Pete! Go for it. Just message me if you need any tips on the application process :)

Great video! Just wanted to ask if my Master's degree in Psychology here in the Philippines is recognized there in Spain? Just shooting my shot in case you know. Thanks!

Hi! I am still in highschool. However I'm planning to study to Ateneo for college, can i still apply for this scholarship? Or does it depends if they offer this scholarship?

Hi! I'm preparing for my Erasmus Mundus EPS, hoping I could get in this year's intake haha

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hey, that's great! All the best for your application. 😊

[@valoisolarte6670]

@@JezereeGajelomo Yup! I am also scared as the application process highly gets competitive. Also, there are some changes regarding scholarship benefits like there will be no installation and travel costs. Instead, they will increase the monthly allowance.

[@JezereeGajelomo]

@@valoisolarte6670 Let’s hope for the best results!🤞 Yes! Even if next year’s intake will no longer include travel and installation cost, with the increased monthly living allowance, scholars will receive 2,600 EUR more in total compared to the previous years. 😃

Hello Aiswarya & Ana! Apologies for my late response. After graduating from the Masters, partner country students have the option to apply for a one year job search visa. So you have the option to either to stay in Europe and look for a job or go back to your home country. ☺️

[@ruken3455]

Hi thank you for this excellent information. Question : will I have opportunity to work in Europe after erasmus mundus programme or I should go to my country

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hi! For sure there will be opportunities to work here. It’s not required to go back to your country after graduating.

[@Fun_Forever899]

What amount of travelling allowance is paid to students?? Approximately in two years??

[@Filipinospanishwalk]

hi, I have a question and I'm curious, thus USA citizens student's can apply in this scholarship? thanks and have a wonderful time

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hey! Yes, this scholarship is available to any nationality. 😊

[@ALLinone-pr2kn]

can we work part time while studying and also how much stipend is enough for a student on monthly basis.

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Balancing academics with part-time job is not an ideal situation; it can be really tough especially if you’re pursuing an Erasmus Master’s Degree.

[@leynicole3037]

Hello po! Is your flight ticket roundtrip for immigration purposes or one-way?

Hi! I have a question regarding settling in a specific country. So, after completing the Master's degree, will I get a job search visa (and work permit) in the countries I studied? Or, do I have to come back to my home country after finishing my studies?

[@JezereeGajelomo]

If you got the Erasmus Scholarship, you are not required to go back to your home country after finishing the studies. If you want to stay in Europe, you can apply for the job search visa but only in one country that you have studied in.

[@Solotraveler415]

It's very informative for me I'm also interested to apply for psychology.

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Thank you for watching! And yes to pursuing Psychology ☺️

[@davidla4676]

Thank you for your sharing. Besides preparing 1000-1500 EUR for the first month in Europe, did you pay yourself for the first flight from your country to Spain?

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hello! Yes, I did.

[@temesgenamberbirshega5245]

how is the job opportunities after finishing school

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Employability rate is high after graduating from any Erasmus program. We are also given the opportunity to apply for a one year job search visa after finishing the masters.

[@pinoyodyssey3285]

Hello kabayan. i want to ask when is the best time of the year to look for masters program. i am not sure if i am able to make it by Sept.

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hello po! As for Erasmus programs, it usually opens around October until late January. You may check the catalogue for more info! ☺️

[@carlthaddeuscalibo311]

Correct me if I’m wrong but does it mean you had to pay for everything first (one-way ticket so europe, your rent and your first two months of living allowance) and then the EU commission just reimbursed it when you arrived there?

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Yes, I did. However, it really depends on the program you are in. Some programs give the scholarship allowance ahead, some will give it after a few months.

[@rhidibarma8859]

how are the chances to get European citizenship after the Erasmus mundus program?

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Honestly, chances are quite slim to get a European citizenship immediately after the program. Most students usually apply for the one year job search visa after finishing the program. :)

[@jamiapamada9933]

Hi, Ate! I messaged you on Instagram. I have a question regarding the Erasmus program. Thank you!

[@sofiajarielco5557]

Hi! Just wanted to know, I read on Erasmus website that we can only get a maximum of 1 year for the erasmus scholarship, what happens if the masters degree you’re taking requires 2 years?

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hey! You need to look further on your preferred program/s listed on the Erasmus catalogue. Most of the programs that I know of, offers the scholarship for 2 years.

[@Kiddo0702]

My application for the EMJMD Degreen in Chemical NanoEngineering was approved but I am not granted with the Erasmus Mundus Scholarship. However, I was offered a scholarship grant by Aix Marseille University, France, financed by the French government, amounting to 10,000 euros per year. The 1,500 euros will be used to cover the tuition fee, leaving the remaining 8,500 euros for living expenses, travel costs, etc. May I ask if the 8,500 euros/year enough for my study in France-Poland-Italy? Maraming salamat po!

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hey, congratulations on your acceptance! The allowance is enough to survive. However, you really need to be tight on your budget. If you’ll decide to push through, it would be helpful to connect with other Filipino alumni under this program so that you can get some tips and ideas on the estimated cost of living on the city where you’ll be based. Hope everything works out! ☺️

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Also, I’m not quite sure if this applies to your program but maybe you can ask your program coordinator if they offer mobility allowance during your 2nd semester / 3rd semester.

[@Kiddo0702]

@@JezereeGajelomo thank you, Ms. Jezeree! According to the program coordinator, I will be given 300 euros as I move to Poland and Italy. I’m really looking forward to be able to study in Europe despite the humble allowance. After all, this is my dream program and it was my second time applying. Thank you very much for your insights and congratulations in advance ❤️

[@AliHamza-mp5ij]

Hi, thanks a lot for this great information. Could you kindly tell me, how much money did you have to spend before you received your scholarship after going to Europe? I mean, how much did you initially spend on the accommodation from your savings? Other expenses like visa fees etc. How much did you have to borrow for all of these expenses before your received your first installment of scholarship money in Europe? Thanks in advance.

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hi! I couldn’t answer as to the exact amount really, but one thing is for sure, it was definitely not more than the travel and installation cost that they gave me during my first academic year. Also, I made sure to arrive in Europe exactly a month before getting my first scholarship to avoid unnecessary spending.

U r so cute in your deliberations….Salamat….

Hi! I've been watching your vlogs and it's been helpful since I'm applying too soon! 🤞🏻I wanted to ask ⏤ what is the breakdown of the total of 49,000 euros, since the monthly allowance is 1000 euros per month and the installation/travel allowance is 2000-4000 euros? Also, how did you receive the allowance? Did you have to open a bank there abroad?

[@JezereeGajelomo]

Hey Phoebe! Here’s the breakdown for the 49,000 EUR. • 18,000 - for the tuition fees (9,000 per academic year for Partner Country Students) • 24,000 - 24 months worth of living allowance • 4,000 - beginning of the first academic year, travel and installation allowance • 3,000 - beginning of the second academic year, travel allowance Since I am coming from a partner country, they required me to open a European bank account.

Hello! Thanks for the very informative video. Question: Did you have to show a bank balance statement to apply for a student visa? Was there a required amount/proof of financial capability? Or is that waived because of the scholarship?

Hey! When I applied for the student visa, I presented the official scholarship acceptance. No need to present a bank statement. Also, my visa application was free of charge. :)
