Application Deadline: March 10th 2013

The University of Skövde offers some scholarships to students who are attending a Master’s programme at our University and are liable for tuition fees. If you are an exchange student, please contact your home university for information about which scholarships they provide.

This page contains information about three types of scholarship grants:

  1. Scholarships for international master’s students liable for tuition fees
  2. Scholarships offered by the Swedish Institute
  3. Scholarships for exchange students from the EU, EEA and Switzerland

1. Scholarships for international master’s students liable for tuition fees

The University of Skövde has some scholarships to students attending a Master’s programme at our university. The scholarships are tuition fee waivers of SEK 60 000 / year (50% of the tuition fee), and the amount will be deducted from the tuition fee when you receive the invoice. The scholarship granting criterion is academic merits. The scholarship can only be awarded to tuition paying students. Please note that you have to be able to finance the rest of the tuition fee yourself and to cover all the living expenses during your stay in Sweden.

How to apply for a scholarship at the University of Skövde:

  • First apply for studies at University Admissions prior to applying for a scholarship at the University of Skövde, you must apply for one of our master’s programmes at the Swedish official online application service University Admissions. The deadline for applications for the autumn semester 2013 has passed, but at the moment we are still accepting late applications.
  • Then apply for a scholarship at the University of Skövde: the scholarship application deadline for the master’s programmes that start in the autumn semester (August 2013) is March 10th, 2013.
  • Fill in the Scholarship Application Form. You will need to provide us with the application number you will receive from the website University Admissions when you submit your scholarship application on our website.

Please read the information below with the list of countries (categories 1 and 2) before you apply for a scholarship.

Deadline: March 10th, 2013

The scholarship applications for the autumn semester 2013 may be analyzed in two batches as below:

  • Scholarship applications received until March 10th
  • Scholarship applications received from March 11th to April 21st

In case the University of Skövde does not grant all scholarships in the first batch of applications, our scholarship committee will work on a second batch after the deadline so that the scholarship applications received after the deadline will also be analysed for the autumn semester. Note that we will not accept scholarship applications for the autumn semester 2013 after April 21st, 2013 and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to grant scholarships in a second batch.

The first batch results will be announced in the beginning of April 2013. In case we have a second batch, its results will be announced in the beginning of May 2013.
