General Information
IMPORTANT! In the case of short-term student study mobility at a university, an existing contractual agreement must be in place between the sending and the host institution.
If we do not have an agreement with the selected institution, it is not possible to carry out the mobility at that institution.

Organising the mobility in full is the student’s responsibility. The Mobility Office supports the administrative procedures related to the scholarship: it manages nominations, the required documents, and ensures the payment of the grant amount. After the application period closes, we review the submitted applications, compile the scores, and then create a ranking based on the results. The ranking determines who may choose a host university first at the Placement Meeting. In the event of a tie, the students concerned may decide the order of selection by mutual agreement. If no agreement is reached, the decision will be made based on the cumulative weighted grade point average. An online meeting where students whose applications have been approved select the university they would like to attend. We try to schedule the meeting at a time that works for everyone, and we will send written information about it. An interruption of mobility occurs when, during the period specified in the contract, the participant does not spend their time carrying out the activity for which they have received funding. Interrupting a mobility period is not prohibited, but we can provide funding only for the period during which you are actually engaged in the activity stated in your contract. The applicant is required to report every interruption to us in the Learning/Mobility Agreement and also in a separate comment on the My Semmelweis platform. Important! The scholarship amount depends on the length of the funded period and the host country’s country group (see the list below). The grant may not necessarily cover all actual expenses incurred.

The intention to extend must be submitted in writing to the International Mobility Office and the faculty coordinator at least 30 working days before the contract expires. The assessment of the extension request and the conclusion of the amended contract follow the procedure applicable to the original application. The extended mobility period must be completed no later than 31 August 2027. The scholarship is always transferred in Hungarian forints (HUF) to the bank account number recorded in the Neptun system (please also indicate this same account number in your grant agreement). We cannot transfer two scholarships to the same bank account (i.e., two students cannot receive the scholarship to the same account). For students: pannonia@semmelweis.hu For staffs: My Semmelweis

After the application deadline, please regularly check notifications sent from the My Semmelweis platform to your official university email address, as all communication takes place through that platform.
Please keep copies of all documents as well, because we may request them at any time for up to five years retrospectively.
What documents must be attached to the application for long-term study mobility?

Upload the documents certifying at least an intermediate-level language exam(s) in PDF format, clearly named, as relevant for the selected host university.

V. Documents for additional points – PDF format
Upload all documents (clearly named) that qualify for additional points. You can also find the relevant table in the application form.
Download the list of documents eligible for additional points.
How should students submit their application?
The application can be submitted on the My Semmelweis platform under the Pannónia Scholarship Programme menu item.
After selecting the appropriate application type, please complete the fields as required and upload the necessary documents. At the beginning of the form, please leave the “Submission status” option set to “Application submitted.”
During the application procedure, all communication will take place on the My Semmelweis platform within the relevant form (e.g., requests for missing documents, status change notifications, etc.).
Important:
- The application must always be submitted by the applicant (using their own account/email), so they receive notifications and can respond to questions from our administrators via the My Semmelweis platform.
- If you apply for more than one mobility period, you must complete a separate application form for each mobility.
Checking and evaluation of applications, submission of missing documents/corrections
Review and evaluation – long-term study mobility – How do I know if my application has been awarded?
After the application period ends, the Mobility Office will review each applicant’s documents and compile the scores, no later than within 30 days after the application deadline.
After that, we will establish a ranking based on the points and notify all applicants via the My Semmelweis platform and, if necessary, also by email (sent to the student’s official university email address, stud.semmelweis.hu) regarding the date of the Placement Meeting.
Submission of missing documents (corrections)
Missing documents/corrections may be requested once. You must provide the required documents or corrections within 5 days of our feedback. If the applicant does not correct the issue, corrects it improperly, or submits it after the deadline, the application will be rejected without further substantive review.
Assessment of applications, submission of missing documents, appeals
Appeal
The applicant may submit a written objection against the decision within 3 days of receiving the notification of the application decision. The objection may be submitted by email to the International Mobility Office. The objection must include the information necessary to identify the application concerned, as well as the measure being contested.
The International Mobility Office must respond to the appeal within 5 working days.
If the applicant ultimately does not take part in the awarded mobility
If a successful applicant ultimately does not wish to participate in the programme, they must notify the International Mobility Office in writing without delay. In this case, the application decision regarding that student becomes void.
Steps to take after a successful application (after Placement Meeting – Step 2)
What additional documents must be submitted after a successful application for long-term study mobility?
I. LEARNING AGREEMENT – DRAFT IN WORD FORMAT

Important! Under the signatories, in the section “Responsible Person at the Sending Institution”, the Dean of the relevant Faculty must sign in every case.
II. SUPERVISORs/institutional leadres ACCEPTANCE letter – SIGNED, PDF FORMAT

Signing the grant agreement
Step 1: Our office sends the agreement to the applicant in Word format for completion (once all the required documents listed above have been submitted in full and are signed). The applicant only needs to complete the yellow sections.
Step 2: After completing it, the applicant sends it back to us in Word format so that we can complete the remaining parts (we will fill in the green sections).
Step 3: Once the agreement has been finalised, we will inform the applicant when they can come to our office to sign it in person. The agreement is printed in two copies.
Important!
The grant agreement can be signed only in person at our office. We do not accept authorisations/proxy signatures or any other alternatives. Please take this into account and plan accordingly before your departure, as you must come to our office to sign the agreement. The agreement must be signed with a blue pen; we cannot accept any other colour.
When will I receive the grant?
Once all the required documents have been submitted in full and have been signed by everyone, we will make the payment no later than within 30 calendar days after the date on which the grant agreement has been signed by all three parties.
Important! At the beginning of the year, during the summer period, and at the end of the year, obtaining the University’s signatures may take longer. Please take this into account when submitting your application.
During the mobility period – if there are changes to the studies
What should you do if changes occur during your stay abroad?
If any change occurs in your enrolled courses (e.g., a course is deleted, you add an additional course, make changes, or extend the duration of your mobility), you must inform the relevant Department, the faculty coordinator, and the Mobility Office by email.
Steps for making changes:
- Download and complete the During the Mobility document according to the changes.
- Send the changes to the relevant Department (at Semmelweis University) for approval.
- Once approval has been received, email the Mobility Office the completed During the Mobility draft in Word format. The document may be signed only after you have received confirmation/feedback about this.
- If our office approves the completion, the signing process can begin:
- First signer: Head of the Mobility Office
- Second signer: Dean of the relevant Faculty
- Third signer: Host institution
- Fourth signer: Applicant

We love postcards! 🤩
Postcards from our students take us around the world—at least in our imagination. 😊 Each and every card is a real treasure to us, and we truly enjoy collecting them. Every single postcard brings a smile to our faces, because it’s wonderful to know that our students are thinking of us. 🤗🥰
