General Council of Morbihan - CampusTrotter56

CampusTrotter56 grant

You will receive a grant of one-off payment of up to 800 EUR for a study placement, an internship or a research placement abroad. The amount depends on where you are travelling to, how long you will be staying and your family’s income. For stays in Europe, between 400 and 650 euros are paid; for stays outside Europe, between 550 and 800 euros. The amount is higher for longer stays and lower incomes. The grant is awarded by the Morbihan department in Brittany (France) and is paid into your bank account as a single lump sum. You can receive it again for each new eligible stay and combine it with the department’s general study grant.

Who can apply

• Where you live: Your parents’ tax domicile is in the Morbihan department. If you are financially independent, your own tax domicile must be there.
• Age: You are 18 years old or older and younger than 26 during your stay.
• Study level: You are currently studying at university and aiming to obtain a qualification that is at a higher level than the French baccalaureate (level 5, 6, 7 or 8, or the equivalent qualification from another country).
• What you do abroad: A study visit, work placement or research stay lasting at least 4 weeks. Language courses, group study trips and stays for which remuneration is paid under a training contract are not included. The French overseas territories (DROM-COM) are also excluded.
• Field of study: All compartments are open.
• Nationality: Applicants of any nationality may apply, provided they meet the residence requirements for the Morbihan department.
