Applications are open to all. We are looking for people who are interested in the cross-links between culture and city making.

We are looking for participants who are motivated to bring the knowledge gathered during the Class 2016 &#8211; Spring Session program into these cities.<\/p>\n<p>Can I apply to more than one trip ?<br \/>\nYes. If you do so, please state in your application why you are interested in visiting each city.<\/p>\n<p>What documents will I need for the application process?<br \/>\nAll applicants must complete the application form found in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanschoolruhr.org\/en\/einschreiben\/\">Apply<\/a> section.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"199.50000000000006\">You must answer the three questions, and you can provide an URL link to a website or work samples (this is not mandatory).When is the deadline<br \/>\nThe deadline of the Spring Session is on the 27th of March<\/div>\n<div data-canvas-width=\"85.50000000000001\">\n<p>When can I apply to the Summer Session (trips to Athens and Liverpool)?<br \/>\nThe Open Call for the Summer Session will be launched in April.

The dates of the preparation events will be announced to selected participants.<\/p>\n<p>What is the grant for ?<br \/>\nA 400\u20ac grant will be granted to 4 to 5 students per trip.
