How the card works
The European Student Card is not a new student card. It consists of technical and visual elements that higher education institutions add to their existing student cards via the “ESC-Router”, a digital platform that facilitates student status verification across Erasmus+ programme countries.

How your institution can join the ESC
As a higher education institution in a EU/EEA Member State or as an ECHE holder in another Erasmus+ programme country, you can join the ESC through several quick steps. This starts with connecting to the ESC-Router.

Governance structure
The ESC governance ensures swift coordination and communication between and within the different ESCI building blocks.
