  - The first installment is usually around 70-80% of the total grant amount, with the remaining balance paid after the student has completed the mobility period and submitted the required documentation.

5. Additional Financial Support:
  - Some partner institutions may offer additional financial support or scholarships for Erasmus+ students, such as housing allowances or travel grants.
  - Students should check with their home institution and the host institution for information on any additional financial aid opportunities.

It's important for Erasmus+ students to carefully review the application deadlines, eligibility criteria, and grant disbursement procedures, as they may vary slightly between the University of the Peloponnese and its partner institutions. Proactive communication with the International Office at both the home and host institutions is crucial for a successful Erasmus+ mobility experience.
