Erasmus in Vilnius: what to know first
The largest Baroque old town in Eastern Europe. A green, creative and very affordable city.
The Vilnius groups for the 2026-2027 academic year are not run by any institution: they are opened by students arriving that same year, usually between the spring and summer before. They fill in waves — first the people with a confirmed place, then the ones locking down housing — which is why a group created too early often stalls half empty.
You do not need to join all of them. Start with the one that solves your most urgent problem in Vilnius, and add the rest once you have an arrival date.
In Vilnius the general group is usually the best way in: it is where everything else gets arranged.

Before you join a Vilnius group
Erasmus groups are also hunting ground for rental scams, especially in Vilnius when demand spikes. Three rules head off almost every problem:
- 01Never pay a deposit or a holding fee for a room you have not seen, contract or no contract: it is the most common scam and the most expensive.
- 02Be wary of anyone who pulls you out of the group into a private chat to close the deal fast and under pressure.
- 03A price far below the city reference is almost never a bargain; it is the bait.
