The Zagreb groups for 2027-2028 are not open yet

There is no verified Zagreb group for the 2027-2028 academic year yet. Each cycle's groups usually open between May and July of the preceding year, once places are confirmed. We only publish a group once its invite link genuinely works, so this page will update as soon as a Zagreb group is confirmed.

In the meantime, here is what we do know about Zagreb:

(The city)

Erasmus in Zagreb: what to know first

Cafe terraces in the Upper Town, lively markets and the gateway to the Croatian coast. An Erasmus scene on the rise.

The Zagreb groups for the 2027-2028 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 Zagreb, and add the rest once you have an arrival date.

In Zagreb the general group is usually the best way in: it is where everything else gets arranged.

The best and worst of Zagreb

This comes straight from the scores we publish for Zagreb — the same ones shown as bars on its city page. The good and the bad, unvarnished.

+ In favour of Zagreb
  • prices that fit a student budget
  • a very strong sense of safety
  • some of the best nightlife in Europe
− Against Zagreb

Zagreb does not fall below our threshold on any of the ten signals, so we are not flagging a specific drawback.

(Cost of living)

What living in Zagreb costs

The reference prices we use for Zagreb. Handy for judging whether a room offered in a 2027-2028 group is priced fairly or padded.

€642

€48

Transport pass

€3

A beer

Rough monthly floor in Zagreb
€714

Before you join a Zagreb group

Erasmus groups are also hunting ground for rental scams, especially in Zagreb when demand spikes. Three rules head off almost every problem:

  1. 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.
  2. 02Be wary of anyone who pulls you out of the group into a private chat to close the deal fast and under pressure.
  3. 03A price far below the city reference is almost never a bargain; it is the bait.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there Zagreb groups for 2027-2028 yet?

None for Zagreb in 2027-2028 has a working link yet. We would rather list nothing than dead links.

When do the Zagreb groups for 2027-2028 open?

Between May and July of the preceding year. They are opened by the students arriving in Zagreb, not the university, so there is no official date.

How much does renting in Zagreb cost?

A one-bedroom flat outside the centre costs around 642 € a month in Zagreb (Numbeo, July 2026); a room in a shared flat is usually cheaper. An offer far below the market deserves suspicion.

Yes. In Zagreb we have Akademija medicinskih znanosti Hrvatske, Akademija tehničkih znanosti Hrvatske, Algebra Bernays University on record. Ask in the general group for your faculty's.
