2. Registration

The registration for the Event is done online through the website www.studyineuropefairs.eu. The registration is binding.

It becomes binding for both parties upon acceptance by the Organisers, in the form of a separate confirmation sent in writing (e-mail).

3. Quota system

One exhibition booth will be offered free of charge to each Erasmus+ programme country – this will be offered to the national agency in charge of higher education promotion or to the respective Embassy. Places for HEIs will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis per country. If after the deadline, certain places have not been taken up, these will be evenly reallocated amongst countries with additional applicants based on the date and time of the registration. If the number of applications exceeds the number of booths available, eligible institutions will be placed on a waiting list according to the date and time of their registration.
