Talk:Erasmus Programme

these two programs are quite different.One is for the European students and in the other Europeans students are only exceptionally allowed. The latter is for the third country nationals. By no stretch of imagination, they can be clubbed together.

Erasmus Mundus is not the same as the Erasmus Programme. The Erasmus programme is an exchange program for short term European student mobility (1 or 2 funded exchange semesters). Meanwhile, Erasmus Mundus is an independent programme managed by the EACEA, which includes Erasmus Mundus Masters Courses (EMMCs) and Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorates (EMJDs), which are full degree programs (non-exchange in academic nature), but nevertheless include exchange elements (i,e. educational mobility). The difference between Erasmus exchange programme and Erasmus Mundus is tremendous, the only similarity is the word Erasmus which is creating some sort of public confusion about the 2 programs. It is true that Erasmus Mundus was initially designed for the sole attention of non-european students interested in studying at European universities and obtaining European degrees, but in fact and since the early editions, provisions were made available for European students to join the same programs, but with less overall funding and less student scholarship support. I do not recommend merging the pages (Erasmus Programme) and (Erasmus Mundus) as this will only create more confusion to the general public. Please note that the new edition of the Erasmus Mundus programme has been rebranded to Erasmus+, this does not mean the Erasmus Mundus program is void or "gone". Like most large-scale European initiatives, these programs go through periodic planning and funding through the European Parliament (example: EU-FP7, which has now turned into EU-H2020).

for example one can be accepted to harvard as i was in 1983 form y phd in education. after they told me id get money cause i couldnt pay the 60000 euros a year.. but other kids with better grades who also got in had to pay full cause their parents had the money.thats the money ball done right..money is not a reward for good grades.. when one works hard its a reward in your job.. but a university must ask each family to pay what it can..even in a public university first accept the students THEN ask what can you afford.. those who have money should pay..why the heck do kids whos parents earn millions get a free education and kids just a bit behind in grades who cant afford it go elsewhere. harvard does it right.. there is a webpage called harvard https://college.harvard.edu/financial-aid/net-price-calculator go there to see how each family has to pay what they can regardless of grades.. many times the top grade kid pays all while number 2 pays nothing..
