If you’re currently employed or looking for employment, you can in some cases apply for €1.000 grant via the Dutch government, called the STAP-grant


The STAP budget is not yet available for the regular programmes offered by the Erasmus University, but only by the Erasmus Academy. Currently it's mostly offered by commercial institutions but not the public ones. There is a possibility that the public institutions also join the STAP budget in the future, but currently this is not in development.
