Scholarships?

We may have something for you. Every year, we provide scholarships to our most outstanding applicants. The scholarships cover up to 100 % of the tuition fee and living costs.

How to apply for a scholarship.

Application

All universities in Sweden use the same application website. That means one page, one application deadline and one application fee. Pretty smooth huh?! In order to apply, you need to have the right documents all set, such as proof of English proficiency and transcript of records.

Cost of living

Living costs in Sweden depend on your individual lifestyle. To give you an idea, the following example of a budget might be of help:

Item Month One semester
Food 2 900 14 500
Accommodation 4 600 23 000
Course literature 800 4 000
Phone/Internet 500 2 500
Local travel 500 2 500
Medical and personal care 300 1 500
Clothes, hobbies, leisure 750 3 750
Total SEK* 10 350 51 750

* SEK 10 ≈ EUR 0.88 / USD 1.00
The budget example is based on the living expense requirement stipulated by the Swedish Migration Agency in order to issue a residence permit for studies.
