Your ERASMUS mobility has ended, but you still have to complete a number of mandatory administrative steps within your participant's account and a few outside. Please do this in a timely fashion, the deadline for the steps is roughly 4 weeks after the ending of the mobility.
We are obliged to present all these documents on occasion of the regular audits by DAAD. Only if your Confirmation of Period of Study, your personal testimonial and your final confirmation have been checked as correct and we received confirmation in the EU beneficiary module that you have filled in the EU Online Survey, we will make the final outpayment of the outstanding amount of your ERASMUS mobility grant. Participants whose mobility period ends after August 01 must communicate this to Mr. Purkert at the GO.
We advise you that we will not answer emails requesting information if all
documents are completed, since you can check this in your participant's account
easily.
Attention: Without a proof of the
factual dates of your ERASMUS study period that is signed and stamped by the
host university at the end of the mobility period, we are required by ERASMUS
regulations to demand full back-payment of the ERASMUS grant. (Unfortunately we had to do this a number of times in the past.)

Official Transcript/Academic Transcript/Transcript of Records
The Official
Transcript of the host institution contains the courses you took and
the number of ECTS credits and the results. It should be accompanied by an
explanatory page if only the local grades and credits are listed, to
make the academic recognition at Goethe University easier. The Official
Transcript usually is provided automatically and either handed to
you after completion of the ERASMUS study period or sent to you by mail or as
an email attachment or send to us at the Global Office. If we receive it as a paper original, we
send you an email asking you to pick it up or if we should send it to you by
mail. If we receive it as an email attachment, we forward the email to you. Transcripts of students of the dept. of Economics are being sent over to Ms. Benzel in the examination office. You have to upload a scan of this transcript as a pdf-file into your participant's
account. You need the original for the academic recognition of your courses, we
do not need an original at the GO.
After the recognition step is completed, the administrative ping-pong process in your participant's account has come to an end.
According to the rules of the ERASMUS Programme the creditcs received at the host institution should be fully recognized at the home institution. All academic istitutions part-taking in the ERASMUS program had to commit themselves to the ERASMUS Charter, wherein this goal is set. Learning Agreement and official Transcript of Records are the relevant documents for the recognition process. Only those courses can be recognized, which were agreed upon in the Learning Agreement and which were proven as completed successfully in the transcript. The recognition of foreign credits can be refused only if the level of studies was not equivalent to that at the home institution or if other requirements were not met. The recognition of credits at Goethe University is a matter of the departments, departmental coordinators or examination offices, the Global Office is no player in this. Please seek advice regarding recognition possibilities before your ERASMUS the mobility, peferably when you seek approval of the Learning Agreement.
Judical information: On
October 01, 2007 an important change was implemented in the process of
recognition. Through ratification of the „Lisbon Recognition Convention“
recognition processes for foreign study credits should be simplified for
those students studying in the signatory countries.
The
improvements in detail:
7. Additionally you can use the form we provide in the download area, Course Certificate for Temporary Students, to prove the participation in a course.
After completion of
the ERASMUS administrative process you receive the official ERASMUS+
Certificate in the German and English language. It is provided automatically in
your participant's account after you have completed and we have checked all
necessary steps which include the official academic transcript of the host
institution and the transcript of academic recognition of Goethe University and
after we have marked the final outpayment of the mobility grant as completed.
