Description
We work hard to create a better connected Europe at GoEuro. Our mission is to make travel easy by improving access to all towns and cities across the continent, whether it be by train, bus, or plane.
For students completing a study abroad program in Europe, traveling to new and exciting destinations is all part of the experience. However, figuring out how to get to smaller towns and cities with no major airport connections can be a complicated process. Which is why we are determined to help students find the best ways to get around!
GoEuro would like students to experience the best that Europe has to offer their own way, no matter what mode of transport they prefer. To allow students the chance to explore and travel the continent, GoEuro is offering this great European scholarship to financially assist international students with their studies.
Eligibility
Participants must be of legal age in their country of residence to apply for the scholarship.
Employees of the organizer, their family members, or anyone else connected with the GoEuro scholarship may not participate.
Only one application per participant. Entries on behalf of another person will not be accepted and joint submissions are not allowed.
There are no monetary costs involved for participants to apply. There are no monetary costs for universities and colleges to be eligible for the scholarship. For universities and colleges to be eligible and allow their students to participate, they must publish news about our GoEuro European Study Abroad Scholarship on their institute's website.

Only study abroad programs in EU countries and/or Schengen Area countries are qualified. Failure to submit these documents to the organizer one week after the organizer has initially notified the winner, will mean the winner's prize will be forfeited and the organizer shall be entitled to select another winner.
