Erasmus + Exchange at Pázmány Péter Catholic University

The call for applications is now open for the European Commission–funded Erasmus+ International Credit Mobility (ICM) program, under which selected students will study for the spring semester of the 2026-2027 academic year in Hungary, at Pázmány Péter Catholic University.

Active-status students of SabaUni’s Faculty of Law, at both bachelor’s and master’s level, who have no outstanding financial obligations and a minimum GPA of 2.0, are eligible to participate in the program.

The following may not take part in the competition:

•  first-semester students (at the bachelor’s level);
•  students in their final semester (only possible if agreed in advance with the faculty, and the student is prepared to add a semester upon completion of the mobility);
•  students with outstanding financial obligations.

The Erasmus+ ICM program is an exchange program that covers travel costs and also provides a monthly stipend of €800 or €700. An additional grant (€250/month) is available for students belonging to a socially vulnerable or disadvantaged group (students from large families, border regions, occupied territories, internally displaced persons, single parents, and similar categories).

The Erasmus+ program does not cover visa fees or insurance costs. Courses offered by Pázmány Péter University can be viewed at the following link:
