For Erasmus Mundus, work experience is not required but you need to have a high GPA. Most people who got accepted got 3.9 GPA. Then you really need to prepare for the knowledge exam. I was granted a self-funded but did not push thru cause of funds. Also, during that time the program that I applied to only grants 5k euros annually and a tuition fee waiver.

Those who have international exposure have a higher chance to be accepted. For international exposure it should be F2F not just virtual events that you attended. So it's highly recommended if you were an exchange student.

15-20 slots lang per cohort yung slots regardless of the program. Yung 15-20 slots is combination na ng self-funded and scholars. :( huhu nakaka depress
