For Erasmus & exchange students
The social network for Erasmus and exchange students
Erasly is a free social network for Erasmus and exchange students. It connects you with the people heading to the same destination city as you, before you arrive, so you can find a flatmate, make friends, and get reliable local information.
What it is
What is a student social network?
A student social network is a community platform built around campus life and studying abroad rather than generic feeds. Instead of following strangers, you connect with other students who share your university, your destination, and your dates. Erasly is a student social platform focused on the moment that matters most for an exchange: the weeks before you leave, when you're looking for a flatmate, friends, and honest answers about your future city.
Made for going abroad
Built for international students
Erasly works as an international student network: a global student community where exchange students from every country meet before arrival. Whether you call it a university social network, a campus social network, or a study abroad social network, the idea is the same, reach the people you'll actually share a semester with, not a random feed.
Matched by destination
Set your destination city and dates, and Erasly surfaces the exchange student community heading to the same place at the same time.
Real students, no ads
Profiles are built for students, not advertisers. Erasly is free, EU-based and GDPR-compliant, and never sells your data.
In your language
Available in six languages, so the global student community can connect comfortably whatever their mother tongue.
How it works
Three steps, countless connections.
Before you even pack, Erasly puts you in touch with the students about to live the same exchange as you.

Erasmus social network, answered
Is there a social network for Erasmus students?+

What is the best student community platform for studying abroad?+

Erasly focuses on your destination city and your dates, so the students you meet are the ones you'll actually share a semester with.

Is Erasly the same as the Erasmus Student Network (ESN)?+
