ERASMUS STUDENT CHARTER http://ec.europa.eu/education/erasmus/doc1057_en.htm

“To promote Erasmus students' awareness of their rights and obligations, each Erasmus student will receive an Erasmus Student Charter from their home university before leaving for the study period abroad. The Charter is a short information leaflet that tells Erasmus students what they are entitled to and also what they are expected to do during their secondment.” “The Erasmus Student Charter outlines the basic entitlements of the Erasmus students, such as free tuition and full recognition of studies abroad. The Charter also specifies the main obligations of the Erasmus students, providing them with a concise idea of their duties in respect to both their home and host universities. It will be issued to all Erasmus students by their home universities before they leave for their study period abroad.”
