go-erasmus is made by Nicolás López Solanes. It is an independent project that collects the Erasmus+ deadlines reported by European universities to the European Commission —1,755 institutions and 715 cities to date— and puts them where they can actually be used: one page per university, one per city, and open data for anyone who wants to build on top.
The problem it solves isn't finding information about Erasmus: there's plenty of it. The problem is that the information that determines whether you make the deadline —the exact date your host university closes nominations— is scattered across thousands of institutional websites, each with its own layout, language, and buried subpage. The European Commission has it all in one public database, and almost nobody uses it.
So we harvested the whole thing, normalised it, and published it so it can be browsed, searched, and downloaded. The rule governing the project is simple: no data is published that cannot be traced back to its source. That's why some cities have no living costs and some universities have no page — when we don't know, we say so.
This website links to TuAgreement, a paid service by the same author that generates the Learning Agreement with course equivalences already worked out. That is how the catalogue is funded, and we state it upfront right here rather than hiding it in a footnote. What that incentive does not do is touch the data: deadlines, contacts, and figures on this site are those reported to the European Commission, identical for all universities, regardless of where they link.
Corrections, questions about data, or proposals: sxlanes@gmail.com. To understand how what you see is built, the methodology explains it step by step, and the open data is available to download.
No. go-erasmus is an independent project and is not affiliated with the European Commission, any national agency, or the Erasmus+ programme. What it does is reuse public Commission data under the CC BY 4.0 licence, covered by Decision 2011/833/EU, which is exactly what that data is published for.
Browsing the catalogue, deadlines, contacts, and living costs is completely free and requires no account. Downloading the raw data is free too. What we charge for is something else: generating a Learning Agreement with equivalences already solved, which is a separate product called TuAgreement.
Through TuAgreement, made by the same author. This website is the front door, and that is the paid product. We say so right here instead of disguising it because it is the only way you can judge what you read: whenever this site makes a recommendation, you know where the incentive comes from.
Because they're not needed. Audience analytics are aggregated and cookieless: they don't identify visitors or track them across sites, which also means no cookie banner to click through. It's a product choice, not an oversight.
Yes, in three ways: by sharing your Learning Agreement when you finish —which is what makes the community section useful for whoever comes next—, by reporting incorrect data, or by building something on top of the open dataset. If you do the third, tell us: that is precisely why it is published.
Deadlines, contacts, and living costs are sourced from the European Commission's Erasmus+ App, harvested on 19 August 2026 and reused under the CC BY 4.0 licence (Decision 2011/833/EU).
