Funding
The government has established two scholarship schemes alongside the introduction of fees for students from outside of the EU/EEA/Switzerland.
The first scheme is aimed at students in the twelve countries that Sweden has a long-term development partnership with. These countries are Bangladesh, Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali, Mozambique, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia.
The second scholarship scheme is aimed at particularly well-qualified students from countries outside of the EU/EEA/Switzerland. Central funding is distributed to higher education institutions that will award funding to individual students. These scholarships cover only tuition fees, which means that students will need to cover their own living costs.
