Students should compare where the application goes, the entry requirements, the application steps, the course of study, and the participating universities. The first check is whether the grant call and the programme’s own instructions refer to the same programme, route, and sequence of steps. In the cited Erasmus+ guidance, students apply directly to the institution running their chosen programme, while each master’s website contains the course details, participating universities, entry requirements, and all application steps.
Where should the application go?
Compare the destination named in the grant call with the destination named in the programme instructions. For the Erasmus Mundus joint-master example, the cited guidance says that students apply directly to the institution running the chosen programme. If the documents name different institutions or routes, students should treat the difference as unresolved rather than choosing one by assumption.
Do the requirements and application steps match?
Read the entry requirements in both documents and compare their wording and scope. Then compare the complete sequence of application steps, rather than relying only on a summary. The cited guidance places the detailed entry requirements and all application steps on each master’s website.
Any difference between the grant call and the programme instructions should be checked against the applicable instructions before an application is submitted. Students should not silently correct a mismatch or assume that similar wording means the same requirement.
Is it the same programme?
The course of study and the list of participating universities should also be compared. The cited source identifies both as details available on each master’s website, making them useful checks against the programme named in the grant call. A matching application route does not by itself confirm that the course or university list is the same.
What still needs separate confirmation?
The quoted guidance does not state a grant amount, deadline, fee, or programme-specific eligibility threshold. Those details are not established here and must be checked in the current call and the programme’s own application materials. If a document is silent, or if the two documents disagree, the point should remain unconfirmed until it is resolved.
The cited material explains how the application route is presented; it does not promise an award or any other outcome.
