There are a few organisations that are not approved for the Erasmus Traineeship Scholarship:
• EU institutions and other EU agencies. Also note the information provided by EU about “specialised
agencies”. (The political parties’ secretariats at the EU parliament do not count as part of the EU parliament
and are therefore eligible hosts).
• Organisations dealing with EU programmes, for example national offices like the Swedish Council for Higher
Education or international secretariats at universities (this is to avoid possible conflicts of interest and/or
double financing).
• Universities that are mainly financed by EU funds, for example European University Institute (Italy) and
College of Europe (Belgium and Poland).
