#stressed erasmus student

[mindfulstudyquest]

❥﹒♡﹒☕﹒ 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘀𝗺𝘂𝘀 pros and cons

a girl asked me to talk about my erasmus experience in the questions box and she inspired me to make this post. if you have posts to request don't be shy! unfortunately i don't have all the time i would like to uptade but i will try to keep up.

erasmus is a student mobility program of the european union that allows a european student to attend a school in another EU country for a period of time legally recognized by their home institution.

it is a temporary experience with many benefits, enabling students to engage with different cultures and customs. due to its non-permanent nature, i believe it is one of the most beautiful opportunities for a student to feel completely free to explore and understand themselves, to figure out what they want and do not want from their life and educational path.

but let’s start by discussing its downsides. unfortunately, not everything is perfect.

𝟭. paperwork ( 📄 )

hey, i know, guys, i'm not the first or the only one to say this, but the paperwork for erasmus is a pain in the ass. it's not only extremely complicated, but universities (mine for sure, but i know it's a common experience) provide zero help in filling out the documentation. especially if you're not familiar with bureaucracy (and at 20 it’s normal not to be familiar with these things), it can seem like an insurmountable mountain. but if i, someone who doesn’t understand anything about this stuff, managed to get through it, you can do it too. typically, the documentation includes:

various information like ID, health card, and the IBAN of an account in your name (or joint name) where they will deposit the scholarship.

learning agreement, another plague sent from hell because you usually have to deal with two professors, one from your university and one from the host university, who clearly would prefer to mop the sea than help you fill out your learning agreement.

financial agreement for the scholarship, which has specific deadlines by which you need to submit documents (usually IBAN, learning agreement, and acceptance letter from the host university). fun fact: i almost missed this and didn’t receive the scholarship because these deadlines were buried deep in my university’s website (don’t be like me, make sure to be informed well about the financial agreement or you risk being left without money).

the best advice i can give you is to find someone from your university who has already done the erasmus where you’re supposed to go and ask them for some information. they, having gone through it, know what mistakes to avoid and what’s best to do. the offices often assume too many things and give you insufficient and hasty information.

𝟮. finding an accomodation ( 🏡 )

this too, another pain in the ass. it depends on the city, but here in madrid, finding a place to live has been a nightmare (and indeed, i've significantly overshot the budget i had set for rent). you have various options for accommodation:

student dormitories these solutions may seem the best at first glance, but they aren’t always. here in madrid, the fees for the dormitories at my campus cost more than my current rent, plus having only one kitchen for an entire floor is not exactly optimal comfort, especially if, like me, you cook a lot.

apartment studio/flat this is definitely the most comfortable option, but also the most expensive. a studio outside the center in big cities can cost up to €1000 a month. however, if you can afford it and prefer privacy, then go for it. at first, living alone might not be easy, especially if it’s your first time away from family, but you’ll get through it quickly.

room in an apartment this can be the best or the worst option depending on your luck because having flatmates means cohabitation, which is not always pleasant. if you're going in erasmus with someone you know, it might be optimal to share an apartment or take two rooms in a larger flat. personally, i rented a room in an apartment with three other people (two bathrooms and a kitchen), and i couldn’t be happier; i love my flatmates, and we quickly became friends. we cook together, go out together, spend entire evenings chatting and joking and they helped me a lot overcoming the first crisis. i realize, though, that i am an exception, so choose your accommodation carefully.

in short, consider your choice based on 3 factors:

proximity to the university/public transport links i study outside of madrid, almost an hour by bus from my place, but i live practically across from the bus stop, so it’s not a problem at all.

centrality/connection to the city center you're in erasmus to experience the city!

comfort of the place such as private bathroom (very hard to find but not impossible), utensils, AC, appliances (we have a dishwasher at home, and i assure you it saves our lives everytime).

𝟯. homesickness ( 🤧 )

yes, everyone feels homesick, even the most stoic. but guarantee you, you'll get through it. first of all erasmus, fortunately or unfortunately, isn’t forever. it’s a 6 month/1 year experience that is incredibly valuable for your personal growth, at the end of this period of time, you'll be back home. secondly, you can always stay in touch with friends and family in the age of technology. those who truly love you will support you in this project and do everything they can to make you feel less lonely. lastly, during erasmus, you’ll make many amazing friendships and connections that you otherwise would never have the chance to make.

𝟰. language barrier ( 🦜 )

i can’t say much about this, i've never studied spanish in my life, but, since i'm italian, i have no trouble following the lessons and understanding people when they speak, even though i'm still not able to express myself well in this new language. however, by living in another country, you’ll learn the language much faster and more effectively than with any academic course. in just a month, i already feel much more comfortable with spanish, and everyday i learn new things.

and of course, i could talk for hours about the benefits of erasmus, but i might save my praises for a post i'll write later, towards the end of this experience.

i can tell you that in just a month here, a whole new world has opened up for me. not only is the thrill of being in another city, in another country, an electrifying flow of continuous energy, but i’ve also realized things about myself that i might have ignored before.

i have much more confidence in myself; i feel freer, less afraid of making mistakes. it’s true, i’m far from my family and friends, but this also means i’m far from all those eyes under which i always try to appear perfect.

i crave to see and learn, i'm eager to discover new things, and this drives me to do things i probably wouldn’t do in my home country, to appreciate their flavor and indulge in the uncertainty of "maybe i’ll like this".

for the first time, i’m experiencing a new country without the rose-tinted filter of a short vacation. i’ve never felt as rich and full of gratitude as i do now, and i hope this is a feeling every student can experience.

so, erasmus, yes or no? absolutely yes.

i’d love to keep updating you on my experience abroad. what do you think? would you like that? let me know in the comments! star kisses ⭐

Her Majesty Queen Máxima, honorary chair of MIND Us, was present at the presentation of the report ‘Performance pressure in secondary vocational education’ at Albeda in Rotterdam on Wednesday afternoon, 18 September.

The Trimbos Institute, Expertise Centre for Inclusive Education, Pharos, Utrecht University and the Erasmus SYNC Lab have conducted research into performance pressure and stress among students in secondary vocational education on behalf of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. In addition, a guideline has been developed with solutions for educational institutions, secondary vocational education students and the government to prevent or reduce performance pressure and stress.

Sadly, I have a bad news for you; they are a lot of tourists in Prague, and it'll only get worst in Winter 🥲

But, the good thing is that they are all going to see the same places so not all the center is overcrowded. The absolute worse is the tower, and I hate when I have to walk by there to change bulding 😭

Yayy. It makes sense honestly, as you are here only for three weeks, as least you can enjoy the city 🤌 Even as an Erasmus student, I don't have much classes. Only half the hours I would have in France, so it's nice!

Ahah, you are lucky then. What is winter usually like where you are from? I don't even want to imagine how cold it must be 😭

YESS I HAVE HEARD OF THEM, that's another thing I absolutely want to do 💕

— 🪐

Ah damn, fucking tourists...

Oh well! I'm still going to have a great time, I'm sure! Being able to explore Prague will be super amazing, especially since I won't be too stressed about class.

Winter is pretty fine here, it does dip below 0 degrees (fahrenheit) but that's completely fine for me lol. I like the amount of snow we get, but the wind isn't super fun :( It just gets snowy and icy a bit and its cold but I love the cold so its fine!

[mcrmadness]

I think I realized what my problem with German learning is.

Like, I keep saying I can't find any good, free online courses from German and which would be on my skill level (around B1 or B2). I have been trying to use Busuu now, because it seems like a really good alternative for Duolingo (which I stopped using for several reasons), and it offers also courses in B1 and B2, which is great. Except that I find them so so so hard to navigate through, and I finally understood why:

My damn ADHD again! These B1 and B2 levels often have the same topics in them in probably every language ever, and I don't understand why do they have to choose the most boring topics ever. I guess it's the intermediate or advanced level for you, but still, it becomes a super hard mode for me only due to my ADHD. The language is not the problem, only the thing it's talking about.

For example, Busuu's B1 course is a bit too easy for me already, but the topics are more tolerable: holidays, vacations, traveling, German culture, housing, living abroad... stuff like that. Yes, interesting! But hard to focus if the level is a bit too easy to me already.

Then we jump to the B2 course of Busuu. Okay now the topics get into: household forms, families, relationships and parenting - topics not really that close to me. But wait, there's more! Then it goes into discussing alternative medications, organic food, even work-freetime-balance and the current one had so long text about burnout and stress that it gave me so much stress I had to close that excercise lmao

But you see what I mean? The higher the levels, the more uninteresting the topics become to me personally. Ihave the free version so everything is locked unless I finish a lesson, or use one of the checkpoint lessons which opens that section and make the first lesson of the next section (such as "Emotions" or "Personal opinions") unlocked. I like this feature, cos this way I can skip lessons that sound uninteresting, but can still go back to the grammar lessons whenever needed. I think that's what I need to do. The B1 level still has lots of grammar topics I need to brush up more, but it'd be more ideal if I needed to use them and actually write myself instead of just choosing the correct option. I still like Busuu's style more, at least they TEACH grammar, unlike Duolingo that gave up on that some time ago. So it's not just picking words, but actually being taught about the meaning before they let you start picking words. I like that.

Now I also found some lessons on Europe Academy's website (meant for Erasmus+ and alike exchange students etc.) and I think these will be really good for me. I might see if they offer other languages too than just German, cos I still lack a place for learning some of the other languages Busuu doesn't offer and other websites don't offer for free, and in which Duolingo is pretty much useless now due to the changes they made for the UI.

Financing Your Study Abroad

Budget Smart

Studying abroad is an exciting opportunity that offers academic enrichment, cultural exposure, and personal growth. However, the financial aspect of international education can be overwhelming. Tuition fees, living expenses, travel costs, and miscellaneous expenditures all add up quickly. But with smart planning and the right strategies, financing your study abroad dreams is entirely possible. This guide will break down the costs, explore funding options like scholarships and grants, and provide budgeting tips to help you manage your expenses wisely.

Understanding the Costs of Studying Abroad

Before diving into funding options, it’s essential to understand the different expenses associated with studying abroad. These typically fall into the following categories:

1. Tuition Fees

Tuition fees vary significantly depending on the country, university, and program of study. Some countries, like Germany and Norway, offer low-cost or even tuition-free education for international students, while others, like the United States and the United Kingdom, can be quite expensive. Researching tuition costs for your chosen program is the first step in creating a solid financial plan.

2. Accommodation and Living Expenses

Housing costs depend on whether you choose university dormitories, shared apartments, or private rentals. On-campus housing is often more affordable and convenient, while private rentals provide more independence but at a higher cost. In addition to rent, you’ll need to consider utility bills, groceries, transportation, and other daily expenses.

3. Travel Costs

Flights to and from your study destination, visa application fees, and transportation within the country all contribute to your overall budget. Consider looking for student discounts on flights and transportation to save money.

4. Health Insurance and Medical Expenses

Many universities and countries require international students to have health insurance. Check whether your university provides student health coverage or if you need to purchase private insurance.

5. Books and Study Materials

Textbooks, lab fees, and course materials can be expensive. Some universities offer digital resources or second-hand book options to reduce costs.

6. Miscellaneous and Emergency Expenses

Unexpected costs, such as medical emergencies, visa renewals, or personal expenses, should also be factored into your budget. Having an emergency fund is crucial to avoid financial stress.

Scholarships and Grants: Free Money for Your Education

One of the best ways to finance your study abroad experience is by securing scholarships and grants. Unlike loans, these do not need to be repaid, making them an attractive funding option. Here are some sources of financial aid:

1. University Scholarships

Many universities offer merit-based or need-based scholarships for international students. Research the scholarship opportunities available at your target institution and apply as early as possible.

2. Government-Funded Scholarships

Several governments provide scholarships for international students. Some well-known programs include:

Fulbright Program (USA): Offers funding for graduate students, young professionals, and artists.

Chevening Scholarships (UK): Covers tuition fees, travel, and living expenses for master’s students.

DAAD Scholarships (Germany): Supports students studying in Germany across various fields.

Erasmus+ (EU): Provides financial aid for students studying in European countries.

3. Private and Nonprofit Scholarships

Organizations, foundations, and companies often offer scholarships based on academic excellence, leadership, or community involvement. Websites like Fastweb, Scholarships.com, and Studyportals can help you find scholarships that fit your profile.

4. Country-Specific Scholarships

Some countries offer special scholarships for students from specific regions. For example:

Australia Awards Scholarships for students from developing countries.

Japanese Government (MEXT) Scholarships for international students in Japan.

Canadian Government Scholarships for students from Latin America and Africa.

Budgeting and Managing Living Expenses

Once you’ve secured funding, managing your finances wisely is the key to a stress-free study abroad experience. Here are some practical budgeting tips:

1. Create a Budget Plan

Start by listing all your expected income sources (scholarships, part-time jobs, savings) and expenses (rent, food, tuition, transportation). Use budgeting apps like Mint, YNAB (You Need a Budget), or PocketGuard to track your spending.

2. Open a Student Bank Account

Many banks offer special accounts with low fees and perks for students. Having a local bank account can help you avoid excessive transaction fees and make day-to-day transactions easier.

3. Cut Down on Non-Essential Expenses

Avoid unnecessary spending on luxury items, frequent dining out, or impulse purchases. Cooking at home, using public transportation, and taking advantage of student discounts can help stretch your budget.

4. Find Part-Time Work

Depending on your visa restrictions, you may be able to work part-time while studying. On-campus jobs, tutoring, or freelance gigs can provide extra income without interfering with your studies.

5. Take Advantage of Student Discounts

Many restaurants, stores, transportation services, and entertainment venues offer student discounts. Always carry your student ID and ask about discounts wherever you go.

6. Use Public and Affordable Transportation

Public transport is often cheaper than taxis or owning a car. Look into student passes or discounts for buses, trains, and metro services in your study destination.

7. Buy Second-Hand Books and Supplies

Instead of purchasing brand-new textbooks, check if you can borrow them from the library, buy used copies, or find digital versions.

8. Save on Travel Costs

If you plan to travel during your studies, book tickets in advance, use budget airlines, or look for student travel deals to save money.

Building an Emergency Fund

Unexpected expenses can arise, and having an emergency fund can prevent financial stress. Aim to set aside a portion of your income or savings for emergencies. A good rule of thumb is to have at least three months' worth of living expenses saved up.

Conclusion

Financing your study abroad experience may seem like a daunting task, but with proper planning, research, and financial discipline, it is achievable. Understanding the costs, applying for scholarships and grants, and implementing smart budgeting strategies can make your dream of studying abroad a reality without overwhelming financial stress.

By making informed decisions and adopting a mindful approach to spending, you’ll not only be able to afford your education abroad but also make the most of the incredible opportunities that come with it. So start planning today, apply for funding opportunities, and take charge of your financial future—your global adventure awaits!

Why Are Indian Students Choosing Germany For Study Abroad

Germany has rather emerged as one of the forecast favorite destinations for most Indian students in quest of better education and good jobs. Boasting being home to some of the best universities in the globe, a comprehensive research-oriented curriculum, and a strong economy, Germany has much to offer students when it comes to academic challenges diverse cultures, and job opportunities around the globe. This guide helps to understand the reasons that make Germans so attractive to Indian students who are willing to continue their education abroad.

1. High-Quality Education and Prestigious Institutions

Germany has some of the best universities and technical colleges in the world, and of these institutions, many have performed well on the international education tables. Numerous German higher learning institutions are effective, especially the Technical University of Munich, the University of Heidelberg, and the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, and major in engineering IT science, and other related field.

Moreover, the majority of German Universities offer research-oriented, new degree programs which focus, on professional competencies and academic theories. This approach finds a lot of favor with students from India as they prefer institutions that provide a competitive environment in their academic learning. Different from many other countries, the emphasis on techniques and experience base of German education ensures students' readiness for the international job market.

2. Affordable Tuition Fees and Cost of Living

The first and considered by many to be the absolute major reason why students from India prefer Germany is that the country is quite cheap. Since most of the universities are publicly funded, tuition fees are relatively low or free for international students something, which is rare among the competing countries for International students. The benefit associated with this is that the Indian students have the opportunity to access quality education from international standard education providers without having to borrow extremely large sums of money in order to do so.

As for the cost of living, it is quite moderate for the Germans compared to the level in such countries as the United States or the United Kingdom. Currently, cities like Berlin and Munich, as well as Frankfurt, help students as they provide cheap accommodation, cheaper fares for public transportation, and other incentives for student prices for necessities for the Indians to handle their living expenses by comparing the degree.

3. Opportunities for Scholarships

Many scholarships in Germany cover all the expenses of international students. For the Indian students DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service), Deutschlandstipendium, and Erasmus+ are the few scholarships that offer ample financial support for studying in Germany. These scholarships allow students to relieve some of their financial stress and provide opportunities solely based on merit, to students who may not be able to afford to study abroad.

These Scholarships sometimes include living expenses, travel expenses, and the cost of health insurance making Germany really a viable option for students from India belonging to various strata of society.

4. Focus on Engineering, Technology, and Innovation

Germany has been famous all over the world for their development, particularly in manufacturing engineering, automobile, and several industries. Since research forms a central part of academic progress, most German universities have affiliations with premium industries and research centers, thereby providing students with technological facilities, instruments, and industrial experiences.

Students especially from India believe that the German environment acquires value additions that are much sought after in the current technology-dominated world, especially for engineers. Features of programs embrace internships and practical training in the best practices of companies or organizations – the chance to undertake paid work experiences and advance relationships with companies before graduating.

5. Strong Post-Graduation Job Market and Work Opportunities

Cohort 1 The German economy is strong and as such international graduates stand a good chance of employment in the country. The country is in urgent need of experienced human resources in various sectors, especially engineering, IT, and health, meaning the right graduation qualifications in the market will be in high demand. From this demand, Indian students are likely to benefit because they are now eligible for the EU Blue Card that enables them to live and work in Germany and other EU countries.

In addition, upon graduation, Germany permits foreign students to stay and look for a job for up to 18 months if it is related to the course they took. This period brings time to Indian graduates to secure a good job and easily fit within the German job market.

6. Safe, Welcoming, and Multicultural Environment

Germany is considered to be a safe, liberal, and diverse country that warmly embraces internationals. Diversity in this country makes Indian students feel comfortable and at the same time makes them able to communicate with students and professionals from other parts of the globe. Germany's largest cities would include Berlin with its multinational population, prominent food cultures, and well-organized festivities alongside Hamburg and Frankfurt.

Germany embraces diversity and tolerance as many student associations, cultural clubs, and social activities involving students as well as community activities meant to welcome and encourage international learners. These resources enable Indian students to find their way in the new environment and get people who will assist them academically and socially.

7. English-Taught Programs with a Growing Emphasis on German Language Proficiency

However, as the globalization process continues, more and more programs in universities throughout Germany are taught in English while Germans still use their native language, German. Due to this factor, most Indian students interested in studying abroad choose Germany because they can get a quality education in English without the need to learn the German language at first instance.

But on the positive side, I think it will be useful for Indian students since it will enable them to get jobs in Germany and fit into German society. Most academic institutions can provide tuition-free or low-cost German language classes so that international learners can achieve the working knowledge and fluency that is desirable for most practical life and for career purposes.

8. Ease of Visa and Residence Permits

Compared to other locations for studies, the process of acquiring a student visa in Germany is very simple. On admission to a university, Indian students can apply for a student visa and since its validation necessitates the production of valid financial documents and records of the student's academic achievements, most students applying for this vise get it.

Permanent residence there is also possible after graduation, students are allowed to stay and look for a job in the country according to the course they have studied. Furthermore, Germany’s EU Blue Card channel allows Indian students to gain residency and long-term employment within Germany and continues to strengthen the argument of the country as a preferred study destination for students who intend to build their long-term European careers.

9. Networking Opportunities and Global Career Connections

Universities of Germany have huge connections with industries and universities almost in every corner of the world. What this means for Indian students is the ability to tap into these professional networks which will prove very useful to students as they seek to forge links that can weigh heavily in determining their success in their chosen fields later in their lives.

Almost all universities provide opportunities for students to directly engage with external professionals within their respective fields through career fairs, network meetings, and training in the form of workshops and seminars. The exposure received not only enlarges their horizon but also avails them of employment opportunities after the completion of their study.

10. Cultural Enrichment and Travel Opportunities

Living in Germany also provides Indian students a chance to start appreciating an enriched culture in terms of historical monuments, sculptures, music festivals, and many more. The convenient geographical position of Germany in the center of Europe allows students to easily and cheaply travel all across the European continent.

Concerning the benefits that students derive from the incremental eve exposure to other cultures and ways of doing things arouses in students a worldview, versatility, and catholicity of reception that is very traceable in the present Global Village.

Conclusion

Germany was ranked higher in the education index by Indian students owing to the quality, inexpensive education, and the perfect job market. Being formally more research-oriented, and up-to-date with industrial experience and skill development, Germany offers a very professional education system that prepares Indian students to carve a niche in their fields.

The country provides hospitality to the immigrants, multiculturalism, and is zealous for invention thus making it desirable to study, work, and develop. The decision to study in Germany can hardly be more beneficial for Indian students seeking quality education at a reasonable cost associated with excellent career prospects which can hardly be matched by the demanding majority of other countries.

Predictably, it called on pastors to preach the importance of faith. Surprisingly, it also urged them to stress the need to do good works, including upholding the Ten Commandments. They were also to teach that man has free will. The emphasis placed on good works and free will seemed a clear departure from Lutheran orthodoxy, and Catholic commentators gleefully pounced on it, but it was considered necessary to combat the breakdown of morality in the countryside. Strong stress was also placed on obedience to, and respect for, the government, and schools were to instruct students in the essentials of both Christian living and grammar. (Remarkably, the curriculum was to include Erasmus’s Colloquies.) To ensure compliance, each region was to be overseen by a superintendent, who was to make sure that pastors were fit for office, that they led pious lives, and that they properly preached the Word of God.
