The European Student Card (ESC) is an innovative initiative under the Erasmus+ program designed to simplify and enhance the mobility experience of students across Europe.
The ESC provides a range of benefits, which can include access to university facilities and on-campus services, depending on whether the receiving Higher Education Institution (HEI) participates in the initiative.
Additionally, the card offers access to off-campus services, such as cultural activities and restaurants, where service providers may offer special rates for ESC students.
Participating universities issue Student Cards that follow a unified European standard, recognized by all other universities and service providers adhering to the initiative within the Erasmus+ area.
