2. Check the entry requirements

To be eligible for a master's programme you need to meet the general and specific entry requirements, and prove your English language proficiency.

You will receive a formal eligibility assessment after you have submitted a complete application to University Admissions in Sweden.

3. Apply

You apply at universityadmissions.se.

Good to know:

  • Your application will not be processed until you have paid the application fee (non-EU/EEA) or submitted proof of your EU/EEA/Swiss citizenship.
  • Ranking your programmes is important! If you are offered your first choice, all other programmes with lower ranking will be deleted from your application.
  • Gather and submit your documents well in time. Documents received after the deadline will not be considered.

4. Fill out the CV form

All applicants are required to fill out a CV form that will be used in the selection process. You upload your CV form to your account on universityadmissions.se.

5. Follow your application

Once you have applied it is a good idea to check for messages from University Admissions in your account. University Admissions will notify you if you are missing any documents. However, it may take several weeks for University Admissions to assess you documents, and there is no guarantee that they will notify you before the documentation deadline. It is the applicant’s responsibility to submit the correct documents on time.

Good to know:

  • By applying early, you increase the chances of getting notified about missing or incorrect documents before the documentation deadline.
  • The status you can see at your account on University Admissions is not a final admissions result.
