Poland’s University of Warsaw Scholarships 2026-2027 Open
If you’re a University of Warsaw student or PhD candidate who’s been waiting for a real study-abroad opportunity that doesn’t drain your savings — this is the moment to act. UW has officially opened applications for Erasmus+ partial studies for the winter semester of the 2026/2027 academic year, offering funded mobility to top partner universities across Europe, North America, Asia, Oceania, and Latin America. With only a handful of scholarship seats available per destination, this call is very much a move-fast opportunity for students who want international exposure without putting their degree on hold.
What makes this Erasmus+ mobility round especially attractive is its balance of academic continuity and financial support. Selected students will receive Erasmus+ scholarship funding for one full semester abroad while remaining enrolled at the University of Warsaw, meaning your international experience adds directly to your academic journey instead of interrupting it. For winter 2026/2027, UW has secured placements at eight partner universities in eight countries, including the University of British Columbia in Canada, Korea University in South Korea, Indiana University in the United States, Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand, and leading institutions across Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Mexico — with some destinations offering as few as one funded seat, making competition intense.
This mobility call is tailored for students who are ready to represent UW internationally and benefit from a high-impact semester abroad. Whether you’re aiming for North American research exposure, Asian academic networks, or European mobility experience, this program gives you the platform to study internationally without self-funding an entire semester. Doctoral candidates also have a special pathway through the National Autonomous University of Mexico, with funded placements dedicated to PhD studies in Spanish — a rare opportunity for research-focused mobility outside Europe.
The application process is straightforward but highly competitive. Candidates must prepare a clean, complete digital application file and submit it electronically to the University of Warsaw’s Erasmus office at erasmusbwz(at)uw.edu.pl. Full official details are available in the university announcement at https://en.uw.edu.pl/partial-studies-with-an-erasmus-scholarship/, and applicants are strongly advised to follow the guidelines closely, as incomplete submissions are typically eliminated early in the selection process.
For students serious about adding a funded international chapter to their academic profile, the timeline is tight. The last date to apply for the University of Warsaw Erasmus+ partial studies mobility for the winter semester 2026/2027 is 19 January 2026, and with limited seats across multiple continents, early preparation could be the difference between watching this opportunity pass by — and spending next winter studying abroad on a scholarship.
