These payments are contingent upon the beneficiary’s presentation of the required supporting documentation: proof of attendance, exchange report, language assessment and approval of the learning agreement, failing which the entire grant must be repaid by the conservatory.

Additional aid is offered to anyone with a disability on an Erasmus+ exchange abroad. You can complete the procedures with the IESM International Relations Manager. This aid is a supplement to a traditional grant, accounts for many parameters and is subject to certain conditions. A form and supporting documentation are to be submitted at least one month before your departure.

international mobility aid (ami)

International mobility aid (AMI) is a system put in place and funded by the French Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation (MESRI). Aix-Marseille University and IESM manage this aid to allow their grant students to carry out their exchange plans under the best possible conditions, based on a number of social criteria.

Eligibility criteria for international mobility aid (AMI):

  • Be enrolled at IESM and AMU for the international exchange year
  • Receive a scholarship based on social criteria (from CROUS)
  • Complete a period of study or internship abroad (excluding Monaco and Andorra) of at least two months.

The MESRI AMI scholarship can be partially combined with an Erasmus+ scholarship and provides €400 per month. Students doing an exchange abroad can receive two to nine of these monthly payments throughout their higher education (bachelor, master and doctoral programmes).

For more information about international mobility aid, visit the website of the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation.

Students who already have an Erasmus+ scholarship for their exchange abroad can apply for a further MESRI AMI scholarship.

Be aware though that the number of monthly payments may vary, depending on the type of exchange (study or work placement) and its duration.

You should also know that the MESRI AMI scholarship cannot be combined with the French Southern Region mobility grant.

Reminder: Erasmus+ students do not have to pay any tuition to the host institution. They pay their tuition to IESM and AMU before their departure.
