Scholarships are a great source of funding for prospective master’s students who are liable to pay tuition fees. Some of these are administrated by Chalmers and some by other foundations and associations. Additional scholarships may be added to the list and you are therefore advised to check this webpage regularly.
Scholarships for master’s studies, administrated by Chalmers
There is a separate application for scholarships administrated by Chalmers. You can apply after you have submitted your programme application at universityadmissions.se, since you will have to identify yourself with that application number.
The scholarships that are listed below are applicable to prospective students only.
You apply prior to the first academic year at Chalmers, it is not open to current students.
The scholarship offers are valid for 2 years of study, under certain conditions.
The conditions are outlined in the Scholarship Regulations.
Do I have to pay tuition fees?
No tuition fees for EU/EEA citizens
Higher education in Sweden is free for citizens within the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland.
Education is also free if you have been granted permanent Swedish residency or have been granted temporary Swedish residency for reasons other than studies.
More information is found at Who is required to pay fees?
I will apply for an extension of my residence permit for purposes other than studies
Your current residence permit determines when it is time to apply for an extension.
The Swedish Migration Agency has more information
Tuition fees for non-EU/EEA citizens
If you are a citizen of a country outside the EU/EEA or Switzerland, you are required to pay tuition fees for higher education in Sweden.
If you are required to pay tuition fees, it is important that you do so as soon as possible after receiving the invoice. You must pay before applying for a residence permit and, since that process takes several months, it is important to start right away.
No tuition fees for exchange students
