How to apply?

Applications for Mid Sweden University Tuition Fee Scholarship will be open from 10th February 2025 until 26th February 2025. Those students that have applied to the program at universityadmissions.se and paid the application fee before the deadline will receive a link to the application form by email. 

You will be asked to motivate your choice of study programme and reflect upon its relevance to your own professional development.

Selection process:

Candidates are selected based on study intent and academic achievements. Study intent is evaluated through your individual response to the following essay questions: 

• What motivated you to apply to this particular programme and why have you chosen Mid Sweden University? (OBS! we mean the study program not the scholarship!)
• How do the programme objectives relate to your future plans? How will you use your new skills and competencies? 

Candidates for the tuition fee scholarship should be highly motivated and well prepared to take on their studies at Mid Sweden University. Priority will be given to those applicants that have applied to Mid Sweden University as their first priority!

Academic achievement will be evaluated based on the supporting documents you submitted when applying to Mid Sweden University through University Admissions. You do not have to send in the supporting documents again when applying for the scholarship. In the selection process, an even distribution of students according to gender and country of origin is taken into consideration.

Notification

Applicants will be notified about the selection results by email no later than April 30, 2025. The email address stated in the application form will be used for all correspondence so make sure this information is correct. Students who are offered a scholarship have to reply to the scholarship offer within 5 days. 

Disbursement and scholarship certificate

No money will be disbursed to the scholarship holder. Instead, the scholarship amount will be deducted from the tuition fee invoice, which will be sent to the student. The student will also receive an email which confirms the payment of the tuition fee when the remaining 25% have been paid. No separate scholarship certificate will be provided. 

Mid Sweden University will inform the Swedish Migration Agency that the tuition fee has been paid. Therefore, no certificate is needed for the residence permit application. A scholarship contract will be handed out upon arrival on campus.

Scholarship principles

The following scholarship principles apply for awarded Mid Sweden University Tuition Fee Scholarships: 

• The scholarship cannot be transferred to another study programme at Mid Sweden University or another university.
• The scholarship is valid for studies starting autumn semester 2025 and cannot be moved forward to a later semester.
• The Scholarship holder is obliged to confirm his or her citizenship by showing his/her passport to the International Relations Office at Mid Sweden University before taking up the studies.
• The scholarship holder is obliged to start their planned studies by the deadline set by Mid Sweden University. Failure to do so will result in the scholarship being withdrawn.
• The scholarship holder must register for the courses at the beginning of each semester. Failure to do so will result in the scholarship being withdrawn for the remaining part of the studies.
• The scholarship holder must successfully pass a minimum of 15 credits per semester. Failure to do so may result in the scholarship being withdrawn.
• If the scholarship holder wrongly has stated that he or she met the conditions for the scholarship, by a misunderstanding or for another reason, the scholarship will be withdrawn.
• The Scholarship holder is obliged to inform Mid Sweden University if there is a change in the requirement to pay tuition fees. The scholarship will then be withdrawn from the date the student is no longer required to pay tuition fees.

Only a few students are granted scholarships every year. You should, therefore, start planning for ways to finance your tuition and stay in Sweden well in advance, in case you are not awarded a scholarship.
