Must be enrolled at a college or university in a country participating in the Bologna Process (European Higher Education Area), so the restriction is on where you study, not on citizenship. Fully remote degrees are not eligible. Participants must hold a passport valid three months beyond the programme (ID cards not accepted), but the application documents list does not ask for a passport copy.
