How to apply online
Complete the application form as fully as possible.
Please contact us if you have any questions or need support to complete your application.
A deposit of €295 is required with your application, which becomes non-refundable after five days.
Your deposit is then taken off your total project fee (for example: €3,000 - €295 = €2,705 remaining to pay).
We will immediately acknowledge receipt of your application and deposit payment.
What happens next?
You will be contacted by someone up to five working days later, but typically two working days after applying. This will be to welcome you on to your programme.
At this point we will send you your MyProjectsAbroad login name, password and instructions by email.
MyProjectsAbroad is your own dedicated online portal that supports you before and during your trip. It’s a way to keep you up-to-date with the organisation of your placement.
We'll send you regular e-mail updates to tell you when there's something new on your page.
You can use these to access the following information:
- General information about your destination, along with information about Projects Abroad staff, offices etc.
- A link to teaching and care resources (if you've applied for a teaching or care project).
- An invoice for the balance of your project fee, payable three months before departure (or immediately, if there are less than three months to go).
- Our formal Terms & Conditions.
- Top tips for travellers' information.
- Fundraising ideas and an option to create your own fundraising page.
- A “kit list” of what to pack for your trip.
Visa information and travel information, if they apply to you, will also be uploaded onto your dedicated site, or sent to you, usually between one and four months before your departure.
This time frame depends on airlines, embassies etc. About a month before your departure, we will upload or send you full information about your particular placement.
If you stay on your placement over your invoiced duration we will charge you per day to cover your food, accommodation, and support.

If personal, academic or other circumstances turn out to make travel impossible at the time planned, placements can normally be deferred without cost or for a minimal charge.
