The Erasmus+ App makes it easier for students to apply to mobility opportunities, get nominated and go abroad. However, the handling of applications and nominations through the Erasmus+ App is linked to the usage of the Erasmus/EWP Dashboard to handle Inter institutional agreements. Since many institutions are using other tools to manage those agreements, they risk being overwhelming their International Relations Offices with spontaneous applications from students that they cannot carry on to completion.
To avoid this unnecessary confusion and make the process as clear as possible, a new feature has been introduced. If one institution does not want to allow their students to apply for an Erasmus+ grant through the Erasmus+ App, they can indicate it in the Erasmus/EWP Dashboard.
Their students will get a warning that looks like the screenshot on the right, preventing them from applying while explaining that this is due to the fact that their home institution is handling their mobilities through a different tool than the Erasmus/EWP Dashboard.
