Ulisse
Contributions
-
Three types of mobility grants are defined for the Ulisse call: funded by university funds, funded with department funds and zero grant mobilities.
The Ulisse grant is assigned to the student along with the winning of the place and the acceptance the place of mobility by the student. Therefore it is necessary to sign the grant agreement before the mobility. This does not work for zero grant students.
-
It is possible to verify this information in the profiles of the universities on the interactive portal.
-
University funded grant covers a maximum of 5 months (150 days) with a monthly amount of €700. In addition, all students receive a lump sum for travel expenses calculated based on the following distance ranges:
Between 10 and 99 Km: €23
Between 100 and 499 Km: €180
Between 500 and 1999 Km: €275
Between 2000 and 2999 Km: €360
Between 3000 and 3999 Km: €530
Between 4000 and 7999 Km: €820
8000 Km or more: €1500
It is possible to calculate the distance between the University of Padova and the partner institution using the official Distance Calculator between Institutions.
-
The grant awarded with departmental funds vary from destination to destination, so it is important to check the contributions assigned to your chosen destination in universities’ profile available on the interactive portal.
We emphasize that mobility can be funded for a maximum period of 5 months (150 days).
-
The total grant amount is calculated by multiplying the actual number of days spent abroad by the daily scholarship amount. The daily scholarship amount can be calculated by dividing the monthly amount by 30 days. The lump sum for travel expenses is then added to the total scholarship amount.
-
Following the upload of correct and complete start of mobility documents, a down payment of the grant is made, calculated as follows: 70% of the total expected grant (i.e., the monthly amount multiplied by the maximum number of months allowed, never exceeding 5 months), plus the lump sum for travel expenses.
At the end of the mobility period, the actual total grant will be calculated based on the actual start and end dates of the mobility (indicated in the Attendance Certificates), and a balance will be determined by subtracting the down payment from the total actual grant amount.
-
A partial refund will be requested if the down payment received was greater than the actual total grant amount. This often occurs when the mobility period is significantly shorter than expected.
A full refund of the grant will be required if the minimum requirements of the Ulisse mobility specified in the call are not met; specifically, if you spend less than 60 consecutive days abroad and/or if you do not gain at least 3 ECTS credits for activities in the study plan at the partner institution.
-
The down payment of the grant will be made following the correct upload of the start of mobility documents. The payment process takes approximately 60 days. The payment process involves three different offices and therefore has lengthy timelines.
-
The balance of the grant will be paid following the correct submission of the end of mobility documents. The payment process takes approximately 60 days. The payment process involves three different offices and therefore has lengthy timelines.
-
Unlike the Erasmus+ Study mobility grant, the Ulisse grant is subject to taxation and in order to receive it, it is necessary to declare the type of deductions you want to be applied.
-
The balance of the grant and additional funding (the latter calculated on the basis of ISEE and possible merit), is based on the actual number of mobility days certified by the Attendance certificate issued by the partner university.
In case the amount is less than the down payment, you will be requested to return the contributions for the days that has not been used.
In case the amount is more than the down payment you will receive the contributions for the days that that has not been covered by the first payment as balance.
-
Ulisse’s students are entitled to apply for additional grant to the mobility. These additional contributions are assigned on the basis of ISEE and academic merit and must be applied for through the Application for Benefits Form on Uniweb, according to the terms established on this page. Also on the page above it is possible to check the figures of the supplements for the Ulisse programme, which are different from those assigned for the Erasmus programme, and the list of students eligible to receive them for the current academic year.
-
We remind all students that it is necessary to choose the locations where to carry out their mobility prudently. The Ulisse grants are intended as a contribution towards mobility, not as a full reimbursement of expenses. These contributions, therefore, cannot cover all the expenses you will have to bear abroad, especially in a country with a high cost of living. It will not be possible to obtain emergency funds.
Some countries, including the USA in particular, ask you to prove a minimum amount of funds available to the student for the stay, which can be quite high, we invite you to check these requirements before applying.
-
The list of eligible students for additional funding will be published indicatively between November and December on the dedicated web page www.unipd.it/en/duration-contributions-erasmus-out
The down payment of the additional funding will be processed after the publication of the list of eligible students.
