Freemovers are students or graduates that want to apply for a scholarship outside a network at a particular institution in one of the CEEPUS countries. The selection and scholarship granting process is conducted by the CEEPUS office in the host country.

For this reason, Freemover applications are only accepted for the summer semester. Application Deadline: 30 November
