Stockholm University Admission Requirements 2027

Stockholm University is one of Sweden's largest universities, teaching across the humanities, law, social sciences, natural sciences and life sciences from a campus in northern Stockholm. It applies through the shared national admissions system used across Sweden, though this record could not directly verify its own tuition and English test pages.

Requirements

Bachelor

A completed upper secondary education equivalent to Swedish gymnasium, with subject specific prerequisites set by each programme; the exact academic prerequisites could not be confirmed on su.se during this run. English proficiency equivalent to English 6, the national standard.

Master

A bachelor's degree, normally at least 180 ECTS credits, in a relevant field, with prerequisites set by each programme; the exact academic prerequisites could not be confirmed on su.se during this run. English proficiency equivalent to English 6, generally IELTS Academic 6.5 overall or TOEFL iBT total 90, the national standard rather than a figure confirmed directly on su.se.

Documents

Passport copy, degree certificates and transcripts, and, for applicants who are not EU/EEA/Swiss citizens, proof of application fee payment, uploaded to universityadmissions.se. The exact document list su.se itself asks for could not be confirmed during this run because the site could not be reached.

How to apply

Check the entry requirements for the chosen programme on Stockholm University's own programme pages.
Apply through the national portal at universityadmissions.se before the 15 January 2027 deadline for autumn entry.
Pay the SEK 900 national application fee, if required, and upload supporting documents by 1 February 2027.
Check the selection results on the portal, published 1 April 2027 for master's programmes.
Accept the offer on the portal and, if a fee paying student, pay tuition to Stockholm University before the semester starts.
Apply for a Swedish residence permit for studies through Migrationsverket once tuition is paid or a scholarship is confirmed.

English test waiver

Stockholm University follows the national English 6 standard: applicants who completed upper secondary or prior higher education taught in English, including the Swedish gymnasium course English 6, are generally exempt from an English test, assessed by universityadmissions.se. This figure is recorded from the national standard rather than su.se directly, since su.se refused every direct connection attempted during this research run.
