Student Visas
​
Applicants from within the EU do not require a visa to study in Sweden.
Citizens of non-EU member nations will require a Residence permit for Other Studies. Contact the nearest Swedish Embassy or Consulate for information. A listing of Swedish embassies and consulates can be found on the website swedenabroad.com.
​

​
If you are accepted on the 3-year program and come from a country outside EU, you will need to apply for a Residence permit for Other studies. It is important to know that the Residence Permit for Other Studies is only valid for one year at a time, so students will need to extend their permit for each academic year.
​
​
Make sure to send in the residence permit application to The Swedish Migration Agency in good time before the start of the term (usually 4 months prior to term starting). For the extension of residence permit, allow minimum of 6 months processing time. Make sure that you have an insurance that covers dental care, transport to your homecountry if necessary etc.
