Funding for internship abroad
For internships within Europe, the Erasmus scholarship may cover additional expenses such as travel to and from the study destination. For internships outside Europe, there are other scholarships available. In many cases, the company that hosts the internship can offer compensation.
Study finance from CSN
As you do not earn any credits during your internship, you cannot receive regular study funds from CSN during the internship period. However, if you can credit your internship towards your studies, for example in your degree project, you can receive CSN as for regular studies.

Funding via Erasmus+
If you will carry out your internship within the EU, you can apply for a scholarship through Erasmus+. You must study abroad for at least two months; scholarships include a monthly amount and travel allowance. You can also apply for inclusion support, for example, if you are a Funka student.

Compensation from clients
If you do your internship at a company, they might compensate you for your work. It is possible to receive compensation even if granted the Erasmus + scholarship. Remember, however, that you can be required to repay student aid if your annual income becomes too high. For more information visit CSN's website, csn.se .
